Monica Ros School

Our child started Monica Ros for Kindergarten and it is one of the best decisions we could have ever made from an educational perspective. Every time I pick her up from school she is begging to stay just a little while longer. She adores her school, the activities, the friends and especially her teachers Ms. Krout and Ms. Fiore. The principle is incredibly thoughtful and fully engaged every step of the way. Their focus on the PK-3 curriculum has been a formula for success in terms of establishing a strong foundation for learning that teachers from high schools like Oak Grove and Ojai Valley have told me makes a clear difference. If I were forced to make one critique it would be the lack of ethnic/cultural diversity but I wouldn't count it as a negative, but sometimes I wonder how it might be affecting the one African-American child that does attend. My guess, having met her, is she's doing just fine.

Not only is Monica Ros School the best place for your children, it's the best place to work. A nurturing environtment for parents and teachers as well as students. Of course I'm biased, I started working here when my oldest was beginning kidnergarten in 1988. Now that she is 28 years old, and looking to start a family herself, I can't wait for the opportunity of seeing my grandchild jumping rope or riding the same bikes my daughter rode. We are much more then bikes & rope jumping, Monica Ros focuses on the whole child, the whole family for that matter. Drop by anytime and see for yourself!

This is the best school *ever*, and my son went to several before we found MonicaRos. They are not just a school, but more like a family. The environment is like never-never land where the children are encouraged to grow and learn with wonder and joy. There is nothing 'daycare'ish about MonicaRos. Your child will beg to be allowed to stay and play more each day. If you can, send your child there. You won't be sorry.

My son attended pre-school at Monica Ros. The school provides a staff of caring and loving teachers. The children are taught academics using fun and interactive measures in order to acheive success with the students. Monica Ros provides art, music and summer camps for all children. Parents are welcome and encouraged to take part in many school activities including fund raiser events. If the school weren't so out of my way, my son would still be attending.
