    This quilt shop has been a fun shop for 8 years. Needless to say, I was so sad but my husband is really happy.

    I attended this school for 13 years, from my first day in Prima to graduation. It is the only…read moreschool I ever knew, and because of that, I feel I can offer a perspective that balances both the praise and criticism found in many reviews. This has always been a demanding school. Its purpose is to prepare students for college, and that preparation begins long before high school. For some students and families, that level of rigor can feel overwhelming. However, I have also seen tremendous growth occur when both students and parents commit themselves to the challenge. There often comes a point where students either learn to thrive within those expectations or struggle to keep pace. The potential for growth is there, but it requires effort from everyone involved. That said, rigor alone does not make a school perfect. My least favorite period was Logic (middle school). During those years, I often felt less like an individual and more like a number. The environment sometimes felt focused on monitoring, correcting, and containing students rather than understanding them. Discipline was extremely strict--even something as small as chewing gum in class was prohibited--yet Logic was still the least well-behaved division in my experience. While the curriculum was strong and prepared students well for high school, it was also the least enjoyable stage of my education. Rhetoric (high school) felt like a more refined, though sometimes stranger, version of Logic. Freshmen and sophomores were often treated similarly to middle school students, while juniors and seniors were given considerably more freedom. In my graduating class, nearly everyone already knew each other, which made it difficult to form new friendships. I also noticed a sharp difference in how students were treated as they got older. Students who were trusted more often behaved better, while those who felt heavily policed tended to push back. That dynamic sometimes created tension between grade levels. As for special education services, my experience varied depending on the year. During my time at the school, education as a whole was experiencing significant staffing challenges, and several teachers either left or were removed from their positions. My experiences in Grammar and Rhetoric were very positive, while Logic was more turbulent. The staff members I worked with were caring people with good intentions. While I cannot speak for every student's experience, my needs in high school were met and often exceeded. Overall, this is a strong school. If your primary goal is a rigorous education that prepares students well for college, it delivers. However, the social environment can sometimes create unnecessary stress for students who are already facing significant academic demands. It is neither a perfect school nor a deeply flawed one. More than anything, it is a lifestyle choice--a decision about how you want your children to be educated and influenced during the years when you are not around.

    So everyone who comments for this school on Yelp is either a kid who's probably flunking their…read moretests or a mom getting angry, so let me clear this up for the parents who are worried: this school is actually really good, speaking from experience. The teachers are super nice in Middle School, can't say the same for Elementary though, and the high school teachers are pretty strict but still kind-hearted. The education is pretty top-tier, and kids who go to this school probably have higher chances of getting into Ivy League schools. Sure, the food isn't that good, but it's decent and edible, and the same thing you'll find at any public school. They give us a lot of homework, which, I'll be honest, made me crash out at the start, but I've gotten used to it, and it's actually made me more open-minded and active. And the uniforms are a bit expensive but the material is super nice, lasts long, and looks super classy. The school has a vast community of scholars from various communities and ethnicities, and everyone is so accepting and funny! Sure, there are some bad kids, but name one school where there isn't. The teachers really care about their students, and the school nurse is super professional and friendly. Overall, I'd say it's a pretty decent school. Better than public school, that's for sure! (I took time out of my day to write this, and I think the way I wrote it should give you a little first impression on how writing class changed me)

    I got a great haircut. Remi with the blonde hair was my stylist. She did awesome. She took a bit…read morelonger to do it than I was planning on it taking. But she did an awesome job and she was very thorough so it isn't a big problem. She was really helpful in showing me how to take care of my new hairstyle. So far out of my family and friends who've seen it say they love it. And believe me if they didn't like it they wouldn't have an issue saying it wasn't good. Great Job Remi I left you feeling fantastic and really proud of how my hair looks. I love the bouncy messy look. It turned out adorable

    In hindsight, I should have left when I used my hand to indicate the length I wanted my hair cut to…read moreand the student replied by asking if I had brought a picture as an example of how short I wanted it. The cut took about an hour, which I planned for. It wasn't perfect but I'm not too picky about my hair, especially considering it's covered by a cap 95% of the time. As she styled my hair, she asked me if I usually parted my hair in the middle, which is how she had it. A little red light started flashing in my head as I realized that she had not asked me that before starting the cut. I considered lying but admitted that I actually part off center. She giggled as she reparted my hair and said she probably should have asked that before she started. Fifteen minutes later, just before the student went to get her instructor for final check off, she decided that my hair still seemed lopsided. It was, but not in a terrible way. She trimmed a little more, while I kept insisting it was fine. I've seen this movie before: a little from this side, now from that side, whoops, now this side is too long and then you're bald. Then she decided it was due to the way she had styled my hair, so she spent another 20 minutes with the flat iron. More trimming. Finally I told her to stop and she admitted defeat and that she needed to bring her instructor in. Instructor comes in, trims a little more, and declares me good to go. Although it took more than twice as long as it should, I figured maybe it was just this particular student. You have the option of booking with an honor student, so I went ahead and made another appointment, figuring I should give them another chance to show their best before writing them off. Arrived a few minutes early for the second appointment. Checked in and waited. Waited, waited. My appointment time came and went. No one followed up to let me know that my student was running behind or any other reason for the delay. I waited some more. I waited until 45 minutes past my appointment time with not one word from the desk or anyone else. I got on my phone and booked an appointment with a legitimate stylist and then left. I've been getting my hair cut and highlighted at cosmetology schools for years but since this is the only school left in Rochester, I will have to stop that practice. One star is too generous for this place.
