If I could give this school a NEGATIVE FIVE STARTS --- I WOULD!…read more I'm just now taking the time to write a review on this school. My son (then in kindergarrten) had to go to this school cause I worked in DTLA and he got an exception to attend a school that was in the zip code of my job. YIKES. At the beginning he was OK, then by the time kindergarden ended, he kept delaying getting out of the car to go to school. Then we noticed kids crying at the start of every schools day. From the kicking and bruising the student did to him below the dining table, to the older students holding him down and telling the other kinder - 2nd grades to hit him...they tortured him. Finally, we noticed and offered him a chance to try another school at the start of first grade. He wanted to stay, but by the end of 2nd grade he asked to go to another school. The person who reviewed this school in 2009 is absolutely right. This school is in the middle of a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood. If you are not from their HOOD, you will be tortured. The principal didn't seem to think there was a problem. She kept insisting that she couldn't make kids play together if they int' care when I tried to tell her something was wrong. My son is now a 9th grader and still tells of being hit, kicked, pushed and terrorized daily. PARENTS, IT YOU HAVE A CHOICE ---- PICK ANOTHER SCHOOL! THIS ONE ISN'T IT!

Living in Los Angeles is usually a dream lifestyle most people can't afford and I've been blessed…read moreenough to have a smooth transition from the calm of hacienda heights to the hustle and bustle of L.a. That is of course, until it was time to enroll my child in school. Growing up in a beautiful area and attending great schools meant that I wanted nothing less for my child. As I searched for private and charter schools I was very unenthused about the service and curriculum they offered. A part of me wondered if I had made the proper choice by moving to the Los Angeles area. Finally, I looked into public schools but was skeptical. With all the negative publicity, safety concerns, and lack of funding for the public school system I was mortified but attended a small orientation anyway. Upon entering the campus I was guided by smiling staff to a library for the children and then seated. Waiting for the orientation to start I couldn't help but notice how organized and thoughtful the staff was. They offered headsets to Spanish speakers and a translator to answer their questions along with those of the parents of English speaking children. Once started the principle wasted no time in outlining goals, expectations, and benchmarks the school had for children and their parents. I was impressed by the PowerPoint and overall direction the school administrators were trying to take. As I continually drilled the principal with questions and concerns he did not budge. His enthusiasm and commitment assured me I was at the right place and that my princess would be obtaining the education she deserved and I expected. Overall, I'm so blessed to have stumbled on to such a rare gem. The campus and staff easily make this the right choice for parents in the Los Angeles area.

Principal Blanca Cruz promotes leadership and community, yet she refuses to take accountability for…read moreher and her staff's discriminatory conduct. When questioned about it and told she would be recorded, she retaliated against the student. She uses tactics such as retaliation and frames her actions as compliance with school policy. For example: "The student will have to continue his work in the office for one week, not in class, for 'his safety.' If the student refuses and stays home, the absence will not be excused." Safety does not appear to be the genuine concern here; it is being used as a pretext to punish the student for the parent and student raising the issue. Other students involved were not subjected to the same measures and instead continued attending class as usual. Roybal High School has an incredible view of downtown Los Angeles and a lot of potential, but if the community continues to tolerate this kind of oppression and abuse of authority--especially when it is disguised as "school policy"--our children will continue to be harmed.

The teacher to student ratio can be a little better (when can it not), but I can definitely tell that the teachers really care about their students and go above and beyond for them - my little ones can vouch! It's not often you find such motivated teachers that go the extra mile. Not only are the teachers awesome, but also the various clubs (specifically the robotics club)! It gives my babies something to look forward to outside of the classroom. The administration is also very accommodating to all the needs that our family has. Enrolling my little ones here was a great decision and I can tell they're on the right path for their future when they graduate. Private message me for more details! Would love to share :)
