Our child had the worst Kindergarten experience at Vencil Brown Elementary School. Kindergarten is supposed to be a safe, happy place where children learn and hopefully build a strong foundation and passion for learning. The Kindergarten Teacher our child had was always so unhappy and berated our child not only during class, but also over Zoom class. Our child is shy, follows directions and has never had disciplinary issues. He would burst into tears when we picked him up and he would tell us that his teacher would often times not let him go to recess and he had to eat snack alone. When we discussed this with the teacher she was extremely defensive. She never denied these actions. We inquired if there was a behavioral issue or if he was misbehaving and we were told that he is “always great in class and follows all directions.” After multiple issues and attempted discussions, we decided that it was best to change schools. Our child is so much happier not being at Vencil Brown. The teachers at his new school actually appear to enjoy their jobs and like interacting with the students and parents. We have had zero issues. I would absolutely never recommend sending your child to this school. I’m actually quite shocked that this school even receives a 6/10 because it deserves so much less.

As an old student, I found this middle school the most enjoyable one I've been too. IN 6th grade before covid the lunch hours, the campus was very attractive to us. The teachers are kind and sweet, and the counselor Mrs.Grace was so so nice. I would love to go back. I believe this school was the best middle school in Placer county. If you're going here, Have fun, And don't stress. Middle school there isn't as scary as it seems. Good luck Cobras!

We moved from Arizona and thought the schools in California would be more inclusive. I have to say that every staff member we met was welcoming, cared about my teen's success as a student and bent over backwards to help with accomodations. We were introduced to the nurse, the school counselor and even the wellness center staff who had a partnership with a local LGBTQ+ group to give teens a safe space to meet and talk. Sadly my child was bullied the first few days of school and the staff was powerless to do anything and my teenager didn't feel safe at Roseville. The students are not accepting the the school board is run by parents who don't want to promote inclusivity or kindness towards kids who are different. My teenager said the only person who was nice to them in class was a kid who had tourettes. The school board is now trying to ban LGBTQ+ clubs which is the only safe space for many teens in high school. It is heartbreaking that this is happening in Roseville.
