I agree with the previous parent. I am a parent at Roscomare and have gone through the whole school from Kintergarten to 5th grade. The parents' participation is phenomenal. It really makes a difference when parents get involved. There are two teachers who really are horrible, but if you are invovled you can prevent harm to your kids through bad teachers who can be found anywhere. The rest of the teachers are the best to be found anywhere. They teach, inspire and help give the kids such a great foundation for the real world. Mr. Gaeta is an inspiration and I have never run across a teacher of his caliber before. He teaches vocabulary on the SAT as well as Algebra, Geometry, Physics, etc. The kids are not taugh anything they aren't ready for. Everything makes sense and these kids love the challenge.
We love Roscomare. With the exception of 2 teachers, all of them are great. There is one who is awesome and the kids can t stand it if they have to miss school. Mr. Gaeta is the only teacher who has a complete classroom culture built in the class. He teaches ethics, morals, excellence, learning, responsibility, respect and more by tying everything into the Jedi Code (from Star Wars). Sounds funny, but it works. Kids earn progress stars to chart their way to becoming a Jedi Master. Discipline is a Jedi Mediation or a note to the parent called a Disturbance in the Force. I am sure he will be remembered as my kids most favorite educator because he has a total theme approach to excellence in education. He makes it make sense and makes it fun. The other teachers should look at creating a classroom culture as he has.
Roscomare is a great school for kids, it has great games to play after school and everything. The school nurse is amazing for kids who are hurt. And the lunch is like a private mansion food. Please go! I am telling you, its aaammmaaazzziiinnnggg! Kids will love it!
The school has a repreutation of having excellent teachers and a warm sense of community. Most children feel good about coming to school.
