Emerson Junior High School

Good school ! They shouldn’t bus out kids here that brings problems and fights every child should go to their own neighborhood schools unless they seem like a star student that actually wants to attend a better education in a good area and they don’t wanna come to school just to cause problems with other more niece children but overall mr Hastings is gr8 happy upbeat encouraging but strict very understanding :)
Miss auguilar? Idk what she was doing at this school with that fake blonde hair and make up for a week and mini skirts and fishnet stockings on at that age to dress like that and encouraging pre teen girls is not right she dresses like a prostitute and gives students and teachers bad attitudes lady get over your self it not about u over all a good school staff is polite teachers are gr8

Emerson Middle School is on an upswing. The school has a new administrator, construction is being completed and the teachers are excellent.

This school is absolutely horrible!!! It doesn’t even deserve one star! I recently moved to CA from an area which has great schools, and never imagined that LA Unified schools could be so bad.
There are so many things wrong with this school, I will only list a few things. Anyone who thinks that the teachers at Emerson are excellent has really low standards. First of all, most of the teachers that my son had did not know how to speak proper grammar. I guess they don’t know that they shouldn’t use double negatives in a sentence? My son would come home and laugh about how some of his teachers mispelled words on the chalkboard! The office people barely speak English, which is really frustrating when there is an issue. Additionally, his homeroom teacher would habitually show up late or not show up at all. Most of the teachers do not respond to emails. When inquiring about this problem to one of the guidance counselors, she even mentioned how most of the teacher’s students in my son’s history class were failing because the teacher did not take class seriously because of tenure! The school is disgustingly filthy.
Now my son is attending a school in Beverly Hills. I’m so glad I don’t have to deal with Emerson anymore.

My middle school is on Unilocal hahhaha.
1 star off for having to wear uniforms.
I had really great teachers some that i didn’t like at the time but looking back at it they werent so bad.
