We are a district transfer to Rossmoor Elementary School. We are having a wonderful experience with my son's teacher, the principle and staff, whom are all dedicated to their students education. The families we have met during the school year have now become great friends. We are having fun and look forward to next year.
Snobby parents, some teachers are great, while others are uninspired, uncreative and burnt out. Highly overrated!
Dedication and commitment are key elements we as parents get from the entire staff and community at this school! Great learning safe environment for our kids.
Rossmoor Elementary School is a great place for children! Everyday you see evidence of a Blue Ribbon/Distinguished School: writers workshop, CGI, Mind Institute, reading and math groups, Meet the Masters art activities, the list goes on. The teachers and staff are dedicated to providing the best learning environment possible. They are led by an energetic, enthusiastic principal who spends lots of time in classrooms and working with the kids in addition to her vast administrative duties. She always makes time to speak with parents when we have a question or concern. The parents are incredible in their generous support and volunteer activities! Even in these tough economic times Rossmoor is providing a high quality experience for my kids!
Education is facing the largest financial cut in history. In this time of crisis, Rossmoor continues to reorganize their resources, community and classroom instruction to build an environment of success for children. The teachers, staff and community go above and beyond the typical expectation to keep the school moving forward. With an API of 922, something right is happening at Rossmoor!
I couldn't disagree more about the principal's attitude towards students that are struggling. Every single time I've been in my daughter's classroom volunteering, the principal has either come in and tutored one or more students who struggle with reading or math, or they have gone to her office for help individually or in a group. I know that she makes time every day to help students in the classrooms. After several years of seeing her speak and witnessing her in the classrooms, my opinion of her is that she wants all of Rossmoor's students to succeed. My kids love her. People's personalities run the a gamut and you're not always going to jive with everyone's. That's life. In the big picture, there's a lot to be thankful for at Rossmoor.
Great school! Principle knows how to get the job done. Teachers are awesome. Top notch education. Parent participation is good. What more can you ask for!!!!!
Fabulous principle, extraordinary teachers, supportive and helpful parents, enrichment programs such as CGI training, Writers Workshop, Mind Institute and Accelerated Reader make for a top quality school on all levels!
There are many great things to say about ROSSMOOR! First of all, I really appreciate the great communication from the school as a whole. Weekly and sometimes daily e-mails keep parents very informed. I also love the programs that are offered, the fact that parents are highly involved, and of course I am thrilled about the 922 API score! I am proud that we are now part of the Rossmoor Community!
Rossmoor is a school I feel goes above and beyond all of my expectations. The teachers are overally qualified with many advanced degrees. My child has been nurtured and taught far beyond what I expected. I have been to other elementary schools in this district and I have been continually impressed with Rossmoor.
