Loyola Village Elementary School

I went to Loyola for 6 years k-5 and its the best elementary school ever

My children have had an exceptional experience at this school. The teachers are dedicated, smart and more importantly nice. They care about my children. One teacher even visited my son during the summer which made his day. The Principal is amazing. Every year the school gets cleaner and nicer. Parents are involved. The school is multi-cultural and racism is not allowed. The children treat each other with respect and decency. The only thing that could possibly make the school slightly better is if everyone in the local community sent their child to it so that after school all the neighborhood kids would know each other. However, many people have little faith in the Los Angeles Unified School district because they think it's too large and uncaring. That's another debate. If you live in the neighborhood, please send your children to this wonderful school. You won't regret it.

My daughter graduated from this school and I currently have another child in 4th grade in the Performing Arts Magnet. We have found the teachers to be excellant! The principal and entire staff is really there for the children and the extra arts elements have only added to an exciting school experience for our children who are both also in the gifted category.

Good school, not great. A few short comings in the magnet school where my grand-daughter attends. I expected more from a performing arts magnet, my two children attended a Great performing arts school so I expected a more qualified teaching staff as well as a more instructive approach to the arts ie. acting/drama, dance, singing inclusive of all students. Yet, academics was the major focus, and qualitfications of the teachers.

My daughter just finished her second year and we have had a wonderful experience so far. Being a teacher myself, I was very picky about her education, but am a strong advocate of sending kids to our neighborhood schools. I am glad i took the chance. She has had great teachers, met amazing families/friends in the area, and is excelling in all areas of academics. Don't let the test scores (and the 5 rating by this website) dissuade you from sending your child here, as standardized tests have long been proven to be an inaccurate measure of student learning. It is a diverse, rigorous, and supportive environment that has strong leadership by the principal and fantastic booster club

The teachers and administrators at Loyola Village are passionate about the arts. Many of them sing/dance/act/play instruments/paint in a professional capacity when they are not in the classroom. That enthusiasm carries over to the kids and gets them excited to learn.

My daughter and I were members of the Loyola Village Elementary (LoVE) family for the past 5 years. (1st-5th grade). I was extremely satified with the overall quality of education, administrative staff, teachers and family programs offered over the course of the past 5 years. I would highly recommend LoVE to any parent/family who is currently searching for school that will support your childs academic success. The PTA and Booster Club partnership shows the parents dedication to suppporting the teachers, keeping the arts and other programs such as our amazaing librarian, Mrs. Greenseid, our fitness programs, guitar lessons to third graders and so much more.

I have two children attending Loyola Village Elementary school. Our family is very happy with the educational instruction as well as the fine and performing arts opprotunities offered. We have an extremely involved and dedicated principal on campus as well as an amazing group of teachers. In addition, I don't think you could find a more dedicated and truly involved school librarian.
