I withdrew my child from this school after the teacher lost and left my child and at least one other classmate (on different multiple occasions) on the playground for 15 minutes + after lunch without knowing there was a student missing. Kindergarten was awesome though thanks to Mrs Moses!

The Aromas school under the leadership of Mr Griffith is making this nice school into a great school.

We are upper Middle class and could afford to send our children to a private school. The school has truly dedicated teachers. Ths majority of teachers have been there for more than 10 years and have a Master degree. I have met teachers who want to work there because of the community aspect. The princpal deals with conflict swiftly. I have also recommended this school to others.

I have been a student at Aromas school for the past 7 years (including kinder) and I am now in seventh grade. I would like it a lot better if they had more sports, because I don't think that the kids will get a great relationship with the other students if they only see them in class or at a short recess. They should have more sports, but they do excel in the sports they participate in. The principal is very motivated and deals with problems quickly. There are only about 2 staff members out of about 25 to thirty that really need to go back to school themselves. A lot of the teachers are very hands-on and try to individualize each students needs. Although the average class size is 30, teachers do get around to everybody. Overall its a great school and i reccomend it to parents

This is a wonderful community school. The principal is responsive and caring and has really turned the school around. I have recommended this school to friends who have transferred their kids here, and they are just as happy as we are.

I went to aromas school k-8 and it is a very safe and nice school with teachers who love what they do. The new gym improved the school a great deal.

What a great school! The staff and the Principal are great. My kids are proud to go to Aromas School. The new principal is awesome! She is hands on and totally accessible to students and parents. You could not ask for a better caring safe school. The playground is a safe place to play and when my son had problems with a bully, it was taken care of immediately and fairly. This is a small school so you get that sense of belonging. Parent participation is greatly appreciated. Don't like the duel immersion... Go Bulldogs!

For the most part Aromas is a good school. Hopefully the Superintendent will realize that dual immersion goes against the wishes of the majority of the parents and isn't right for our community. She was a great principal but doesn't seem to have the kids best interest as a superintendent. Our new principal seems to be great so far so hopefully she's allowed to continue the good work.

I was so excited to send my children there. But after several unfulfilling years of trying to deal with teachers that are either sick or on burn out, trust me if you can afford to buy a house in aromas then make the investment to send them to private school. If you don't off the bat then youll have to spend alot of effort undoing the damage. Out of control school, unprofessional too!

Such a nice town and such a poorly run school! Actually it's just a select fiew that ruin it for the others. I also feel that kindergartners and 8th graders have no business at the same school.
