Rossi is a great school, mainly based on staff. I would have to say that the finest teacher that I have had, was Mrs.Hess. She has to be the greatest teacher in all of Vineland. Her desire is not to just teach, but to make sure that her students strongly comprehend the particular topic. Which most other teachers would ignore. She has helped me a lot in my growth as a student and a person.

I like this school but I really think that the children need recess time.Silent reading is sooooooo overated.Also, I think that the students need a decent field trip.

My child is fortunate enough to have had 7 years of teachers that care and enjoy their job. This year is no different than the years past. With a team like Mr. Suppi, Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Iulg, Mr. Ebinger, Ms. Klein, Mr. Hughs and Mrs. Super my child is certain to excell in all areas of academics. Thank you so much for a job well done.
