We transferred from a private middle school and I was quite afraid to be honest, however it was the best thing ever. My experience with the principal was outstanding.

My son participated in student council all four years and was accepted to various Uniersities. My recommendation for the students who are having a bad experience is 'get involved show the teachers you do care and if possible have your parents be involved too!' Rosemead is a great school in my opinion. Read less

The school's principal lacks involvment. Teachers are willing and outgoing, which allows the students to be more involved.

This school is a below average school I think.
