“We love Roscomare. With the exception of 2 teachers, all of them are great. There is one who is awesome and the kids can t stand it if they have to miss school. Mr. Gaeta is the only teacher who has a complete classroom culture built in the class. He teaches ethics, morals, excellence, learning, responsibility, respect and more by tying everything into the Jedi Code (from Star Wars). Sounds funny, but it works. Kids earn progress stars to chart their way to becoming a Jedi Master. Discipline is a Jedi Mediation or a note to the parent called a Disturbance in the Force. I am sure he will be remembered as my kids most favorite educator because he has a total theme approach to excellence in education. He makes it make sense and makes it fun. The other teachers should look at creating a classroom culture as he has.”

They have all had a wonderful eduction at Roscomare with oldest 3 achiving excellent test scores and being accepted with Honors into highly competetive schools. The teachers are nurturing and academically outstanding. Parental involvement and the Booster Club are also phenomenal. Nowing many families have their children in expensive private schools, I am confident my children have received equal if not superior educations at Roscomare.”

“I was very disappointed with Roscomare Road. I expected my child to learn to read in Kindergarten, but they assumed all the children alreay knew how to read, and did not take the time to teach them. I found many of the parents cold and unfriendly. It was not unusual to walk in the school and not have one person smile back at me or respond when I said hello. The principal did not know the students and was not visible. When my child's first grade teacher went to write in her record for this year, the teacher from last year didn't write anything. Think twice before considering this school.”

“Roscomare Road is a small, neighborhood-based and parent supported school with high academic standards. Nestled in the hills of uppe Bel Air, the school seems removed from the usual hustle and bustle of Los Angeles, and the level of parental involvement in fundraising and community-building activities gives it a small-town feel. The teachers are excellent, seem generally happy with their work. The students are engaged and motivated. The principal has the respect of parents and teachers alike. The school definitely 'teaches for the tests' -- and places a high importance on academic achievement.”

“My first grader has had a great experience. Curriculum is clever and fun yet rigorously addresses fundamentals. They often teach several ways of doing something, so everyone can find their own learning style. A focus on values that we were surprised to find at a public school. Kindness and respect for one another are stressed and reinforced. A very high level of parental involvement, both in terms of volunteering in the classroom, etc. and fundraising efforts. The teachers my daughter has had have been wonderful and caring. Her kindergarten teacher had 30 years experience and was at once nurturing of the kids and expected them to behave kindly and well. Really helped my frightened daughter make a smooth transition. Her first grade teacher is relatively new but creative, energetic and loving. Because of private fundraising, the kids have music, art and computer lab programs. Principal is a bit of a cold fish.”

“Roscomare is considered one of the best public schools in LAUSD. It is highly academic, and it's test scores are evidence. The greatest asset of this school is it's parent involvement. The Booster Club provides additional aides for all classrooms, which helps the teachers spend all of their time on teaching. The Booster Club also provides for physical education, art, music and computer lab. The principal is excellent. The teachers are good. My oldest has been going to Roscomare from K through 5 and will be graduating this year. I am saddenned that he will be moving on as the atmosphere is one of a safe and nurturing environment. My kids love their school and have been very adamant that they would not want to change schools if we were to move.”

“I cannot heap enough accolades on this school. I had two children enrolled here from k-5 and found most teachers went beyond the state curicullum requirements each year. Parent involvement was amazing! The school also has a gate program beginning in the 3rd grade as well as band, art, and chorus. They also offer after school activities for children of working parents. Both my kids were extremely prepared when entering middle school. I believe Roscomare Road laid the foundation for my children's continued academic success.”

“Roscomare Road lives up to its wonderful reputation. I have two boys there, and have been very pleased with their classes, teachers, and fellow students. The school is highly academic - some kindergarten parents feel it is too accelerated. The Booster Club works very hard and raises enough money to supply extra aides, art and music teachers K-5, a coach, and many extras. Orchestra is offered for 4th and 5th graders. Parents should plan to be involved, plus write yearly donations to the Booster Club. Roscomare offers a private school education for public school prices.”

“We have a son who has completed kindergarden and will be entering 1st grade in september 05. We have been pleased with the outstanding quality of the teachers and helpers. They are very attentive to the children and their curiculum is wonderful. Parental involvement is very, very high. The classroom and playground facilities are in excellent shape. We have nothing but wonderful things to say about the school. It is as fine as a first tier private school!”

“Roscomare Road is considered to be one of the best elementary schools in the Los Angeles Unified School District. It is located in a residential neighborhood in Bel Air and has approximately 450 students. The kindergarten experience was wonderful: nurturing and warm. Starting in 1st grade the students follow a traditional academic curriculum; homework every night that is pulled straight from a textbook, nothing too imaginative. The teachers, though, are caring and thoughtful. The parent body is involved and supportive. Most people think for a public school that it is excellent and prepares their kids to go on to either private or public middle school. The after school programs, however, are very poor. Lack of supervision, poorly administered, and just plain not adequate. This leaves working parents in a quandary. Most people just accept this and either pick up kids at the usual 2:40pm or shrug their shoulders.”

“Great neighborhood school with very involved parent support and excellent 'Extras' like music, art, computer lab, PE, etc. The teachers we have had in three years have all been first rate and take the time to give each student the attention they need. Beautiful, fairly small neighborhood campus, good afterschool programs including STAR Education enrichment classes.”

“Our very own private public school! I have never experienced such commitment from teachers, students and parents. Together the school succeeds incredibly and beautifully. It is a shame that these kids do not have a great public middle school to match the experience of Roscomare. Many families are scrambling to find a private middle school to avoid Emerson. Too bad about the Belagio campus - would have made a beautiful middle school campus and we know that there are plenty of committed parents to help make the project work.”

“This school pushes academics. There is a lot of parent involvement and a lot of fundraisers. This is the most expensive public school in LA Unified. There are art classes and music classes offered which are funded by the school's fundraisers.”

“A Gem. My son graduated and qualified for a much sought after middle school robotics program! Roscomare prvides a strong Academic program, with the proper amount of nuturing where needed, and exposure to the Arts, with field trips like the Getty Museum and Long Beach Aquarium, as well as fourth and fifth grade trips, IE San Diego Missions. The curriculum provides a wonderful learning experience for the kids, and theme teaching greatly helps the students gain perspective on the topic; History will be teaching about Abraham Lincoln, and English spelling words and composition will simultaneously relate to the same topic! The principal and teaches are dedicated and well trained, and the Booster Club provides needed support with after school enrichment programs and a fabulous annual spring fair and Silent Auction in early June, and a picnic for new kindergarten parents to get acquainted. Our second grade daughter is delighted to be at Roscomare.”

“When you look at the test scores at this school, remember that they are accomplished without any pre-screening, magnet program or SAS. Can you believe it? Truly all of the students are expected to do well here. If your child is not performing up to par, you will hear about it early and often but constructively with lots of suggestions for how to help. The teachers are amazing. There is tons of enrichment (P.E., music, art) and afterschool help (homework club) and activities (open schoolyard + STAR). If only all the LAUSD schools could be like this...”

“Great school with a great booster club that makes it all possible. Started in Kindergarten and loved it once we got used to the homework. Lots of homework for a 5 yr. old. It gets better in 1st grade.”
