Atwater Avenue Elementary School

This is an amazing school with a great group of passionate people working together for the ultimate benefit of the children. The principal teachers parents and community members are all working together toward huge success. At this school everyone believes in the children and wants the best for them. The school environment is very welcoming where everyone feels apart of a family. I've only been here for three years and I love it!

My daughter will be graduating next week. The two sixth grade teachers (Ms. Fogel and Ms. Craig) are excellent. With their help my daughter has been accepted to great magnet and private middle schools. Please come and meet our amazing principal teachers and staff.

I am planing on sending my son there for 6th grade....I am not completely sure if this is the right school for him...more reviews from students or parents that have more information on the status on this school will be greatly appriciated to help parents like me to make the right decision..... )

I can't say enough about our principle. He really has a vision for the students and has managed to get the vast majority of families to buy in. There is a lot of care and concern for all. I have had problems but have always been listened to and supported to a successful conclusion. It is a good school.

When I first visited Atwater I fell in love with the teachers. When my daughter started kindergarten in 2009 she fell in love with school and then we knew we hit the jackpot when our new principal started later in 2009. First grade and 2010 are even better! What a gem here in our little neighborhood.

This year we moved our two girls (aged 5 and 7) from a private school to Atwater Avenue Elementary and are beyond impressed. The quality and consistency of education plus the commitment and innovation of the teachers is all spearheaded by an inspirational new principal. He's not only invigorating a school and nurturing an academically challenging culturally diverse environs but he has also succeeded in galvanizing an entire community. Looking at sister LAUSD schools nearby such as Ivanhoe we are proud to see our API's leapfrogging and the level of parental involvement soaring. We're well on our way. We LOVE Atwater!

We are looking forward to another year at Atwater the new administration and the amazing teachers have worked together to make our child really excited about stating school this year. The parent group is great and a lot of fun.

I love Atwater Elementary because of the afterschool program they offer to the kids. I make it a point to contribute in any way I can to keep the program going. My niece has benefited so much from the program. Thank you very much

Atwater Avenue Elementary school is a wonderful community school. The principal teachers and parents are working together for the students. This year I have become more motivated to do more for my children and for the school.

Although I transferred my child into this school I was very disappointed at the outcome. Unfortunately this school needs a lot of help to return to the high level it was at before.

I tried enrolling my daughter in their preschool program this year and their administration and teachers do not have it all together. Their administration gives you information that does not coincide with the teachers information. Which can cause much confusion for the parents.

My son goes to special education program provided by Atwater Ave Elem School. They have a good program and the teachers and their aides are knowlegeable. The school also encourage the parents to be involve by encouraging them to volunteer.

Great principal friendly understanding patient and perfect teachers.

This school is fantastic. I loved how they added ramps for the disabled children. I mostly love this school because of the teacher Mrs. Baloyan and the principal Mrs. Karen S. Also my daughter is culminating and I thank you for the good work you've done just like the spring dance field trip to the park softball game autograph day and the big thing thats so exciting. Thank you! I would also like to thank Mrs. Johnson Mrs. Peddicord Mrs. Kwan Mrs. Reyes Mr.Cusack and Mrs. Baloyan.
