My son was attending a private montessori school, before attending Las Lomas. My son learned so much at the private school, but due to financial responsibilities, I was forced to send my son to public school. My son's kindergarten teacher is wonderful. I have no complaints with her whatsoever, she

The standards are so low that in comparison to other children, my son is well ahead of his grade level in all subjects. I don't agree. My son is just where he should be for his age. This may have nothing to do with the school, maybe more so on the states low standards, but in comparison to his last school, I must say it is below what I expected. Read less

I have one in 2nd grade, and 1st grade. They both had an excellent kindergarten year. They loved school and learned a lot.

My son has just finished the second grade at Las Lomas and is getting ready to start at Las Positas school. While I'm excited about the new school, I will miss the attentiveness and dedication of the teachers and staff at Las Lomas. Each of my son's teachers took extra steps with all of her students

Small class sizes and availability of learning resources really help. Lastly, parent conferences and meetings with teachers at Las Lomas are productive, and I always left each meeting knowing exactly how my son was progressing and where the problem areas were, as well as some tips as to what I could do at home to support his teacher's daily efforts. My only suggestion for improvement is the addition of after-school activities for music, art, foreign language, etc. Read less

We have found the advancement of the daily cirriculum to be a slow process, our son is bored by the 'same old' daily classroom activities and does not feel safe going to school due to the lack of supervision on the playground. Our son loves school, learning and the challeges of a new project; however,
... Read more we are displeased with the methods of instruction and the lack of parent/teacher relations that should occur. (ie correspondance, regular testing for advancement opportunites and positive/negative feedback on the behavior, challenges and coaching opportunities observed by the teaching staff. Efforts have been made by the Principal to encourage our son to point out bad behavior offenders. No feedback on reprimands of the student(s) involved has been given, with the exception of a phone call advising it is against school policy for a student to defend himself. We are totally unsatisfied with the respect given to the parents/student that try so hard to 'do the right thing' and be a good role model for others. We have raised our son to always consider the feelings of others and show respect to those around him while conducting himself in an appropriate manner at all times. Going to school should be about learning and socialization not protecting and making excuses for other students that may not have the basics of being a good person. Read less
