"Our kids have been attending this school for 12 years, and will be finished this Spring. We will miss it! In terms of quality, I am extremely picky, and I would give 80% of my daughter's teachers an A, 10% a B, and 1 a C (he transferred after only one year - yeah). I think Loma Vista tries very very hard to create a safe, kind, and responsible climate, and is very successful. The PTO parents (those ones that do a huge portion of the work) are approachable, kind, and friendly. Yes, we do have a divergent community, with some students high middle class and some students receiving free lunch. Carefully consider whether your child is truly ready for kindergarten, especilally if they start school at 4 or just turning 5 - school is harder than it used to be!"

"I attended Loma Vista from K to 6G over 30 years ago and my husband and I are huge advocates for public school education but we had a terrible experience at this school when we put our daughter there a few years ago. Teachers were overwhelmed with the lack of resources and huge class sizes. The principal at the time was Dr. Gail Levy and she was horrible. She ran the school like an inner city school where the primary concern was discipline. Academics and caring about the students were secondary. We were so disappointed. I had really looked forward to having my kids go to LV. We ended up putting my daughter (and later, my son) at Fairmont Edgewood, down the street. We needed a school with great academics that CARES about kids ... sort of what we remember from the good ol' days."

"Loma Vista has been a great school for both my children. They are submerged in many activities and the arts alike. Recently, my son attended the outdoor science program in April 2009. It has inspired a new look into science and the desire to learn more about it. This year, both my children are lucky to have teachers who are very pationate and inspirational in what they teach. Yet with the economic slow down I wonder if there is a way to save these wonderful teachers/ professionals from beign laid off from Loma Vista. Please write to your congressmen to avoid a future failure to our children and community alike. Submitted by E Munguia, parent of 4th & 5th grade students E. Munguia"

"This is great if you in the in crowd... This school reminds me of a high school click. If you are in the in crowd then you have it made. If you are not, get ready to be picked on. I like this school because they treat english as the first language and they hold high standards of learning, keeping the kids challenged."

"Loma Vista is a great neighborhood school with lots of parent participation and extracurricular activities for the children. The arts and music are introduced to each child through programs such as Meet the Masters and John Yeiser. Lots of emphasis on reading, including DEAR (Drop Everything And Read)."
