Summary

Roscomare Road Elementary is a top-ranked public school serving 438 students in grades K-5 in the Bel Air neighborhood of Los Angeles, part of the Los Angeles Unified district.

The school consistently performs at an elite level, ranking in the 98th percentile of all California elementary schools with over 85% of students proficient in English and over 82% proficient in Math, figures that are dramatically higher than both district and state averages. This excellence is matched by a strong culture of attendance, with a chronic absenteeism rate of just 7.9%, which is the lowest among nearby schools like Chandler Elementary and Encino Charter Elementary. Furthermore, the school achieves these outstanding results while spending less per student than several other local schools, indicating highly efficient operations.

Roscomare Road's success is notable for its consistency over more than a decade and its resilience post-pandemic, with attendance quickly rebounding to pre-pandemic levels. While it performs similarly to other high-achieving neighbors such as Community Magnet Charter Elementary and Lanai Road Elementary, Roscomare Road maintains a slight edge in statewide ranking and mathematics proficiency. The school's strong performance across all student subgroups and grade levels suggests a stable, high-quality educational environment that stands out even within its high-performing district.

Open Quote Roscomare is the best school! My children love their school and their teachers and have really excelled. The Principal is terrific. She knows all the students and has brought amazing programs to the school. The teachers are all really experienced and work together like a family and go well above and beyond--always at the school after hours. The school has won gold medals each year for Science, was just named #1 for reading, and #2 for math. There is a family STEM night, and lots of community oriented events, monthly parent meetings and teacher/parent workshops. It is a very special small community eventhough it's in a big city, and LAUSD. There are really nice families, and great to have my kids go to school with all the other kids from their block and neighborhood - a true neighborhood school in LA! There is a really amazing holiday show that all the students participate in, even the little TK class. There are two wonderful musicals each year--hard to believe it's a public elementary school. Be prepared to contribute $1,000 per student to pay for the programs like full-time computer teacher, art teacher, music teacher, science teacher, PE coaches, teacher aides--but it is really worth it and wouldn't want my kids to be without these programs at school. The parent group that supports the school encourages lots of participation but seems to appreciate any level of support. They have an informative weekly newsletter that really helps stay organized and not miss things. Every family has to participate in a valet drop off program but its only about 30 minutes a few times a year so not that big of a deal and really keeps the traffic moving. Overall a 10 out of 10 in my book.. just wish it went past 5th grade! Close Quote
