This is an amazing school! We have been there for 5 yars now and I love it. My child has excelled in all ereas and the teachers are amazing. There have been some changes ,but all to the good. And I love the famly activities they have through out the year.It leaves our children with good memories of what grade school was to them and a desire to learn so they can have an amazing future.
I don't like this school at all. I have a little sister that goes there. This "Great" school is really not that great. There are a number of things that I can think of that need changing. I don't understand how this school, to other people, seems so darn amazing. Anyway, this school is just not what elementary schools should be like.
i love the teachers and staff at loma. they really care about the student and give 100%.
I currently have my 3 girls enrolled in this wonderful school and I am very pleased to say that I am very satisfied with Loma Elementary. The teachers are wonderful and helping the children be successfull is their top priority (also shows on their high school grading), the principal is caring and very hands on, and the rest of the staff like the custodians, Administration, playground supervisors, and cooks are the best and my children love them. The school offers a lot of parent/child/teacher involvement activities, music lessons for 4th & 5th graders, after school art class, running club and more... This school also offers ESS (extended school services) which is a great program that follows an age appropriate schedule. This year will be the only year all my girls will be in one school together and I'm glad it's at Loma Elementary. =)
This is a GREAT school. The PTA has sponsored so many wonderful events like: Family Movie nights and we just had first Fall Festival. The principal is very involved and supportive. The teachers and staff are very caring, it's a great atmosphere. API scores continually move up every year. Highly recommend this school!!
My Son attends this school and I can't be any more pleased than I am with; his teachers, his progress as a students, the kids he has made friends with and their parents, and the administration. The Principle seems to know all the kids names, at least she knows my sons ( hope that is a good thing ). My only disappointment is not their fault, this school does not have a music program, nor does it have an art program these are things kids need to develop their ability to think critically. I love this school!
Just moved here three months ago. Very understanding and caring teachers. My daughter made friends right away coming into the end of the school year. It was very important to have her feel welcome and she did and loved to go to school. She is being held back from first grade because of me and she only went to kindergarden for two months. But she is fine with that and enjoying the summer and getting back to school soon. The teachers were very excited about how quickly she learned and were helpful on making the decision to hold her back easy! very caring teachers with hugs and hi fives for the kids every morning and night! kids were very respectful and quite the melting pot of nationalities just like america was founded on!! wonderful wonderful school. Just missing the music and art classes.They will come back someday!!
I have had children attend loma for 15 yrs now.It has been the best experience for both my kids and us parents.I have also been involved in PTA and we are very concerned for the children's safety and all the extra activities and always brainstorming in ways to raise monies to help have a better environment for all the kids. and the teachers and staff are very caring,kind and involved especially the principal.My older kids still talk about the great memories they have had at Lome. Loma you rock!!
I have 2 kids here. The office/lunch staff are great and teachers work hard for kids to learn. They have many school-sponsored functions to bring families and school together (Math Night, BBQ, Sock Hop, AdoptAFamily at Xmas, etc). PTA is strong and have provided many things to help enhance the school and school kids (shade structures, field trips, assemblies, new electric billboard). Principle encourages healthy life-choices and heads up the school's 'Running Club'. Just wish they had a regular PE time/teacher.
My nephew goes to Loma and really likes it. (K- 2nd so far.) There are family math and reading nights and lots of homework assignments for the kids. There are plenty of opportunities for parents to volunteer for field trips, etc. and there are sports & exercise activities as well. I think they get a lot of attention and care at Loma and we have a very positive view of the school.
