[2] Neighborhoods with priority for Mata Montessori include Greenland Hills ("M Streets"), Junius Heights, and Lakewood. [3] Mata was a neighborhood elementary school, Eduardo Mata Elementary School, serving grades 4 through 6, upon its 1997 opening. Its initial enrollment was 600, but it declined down to more than 200 students in 2013, since in 2007 6th graders were reassigned to J. L.

It gained its middle school in 2012.

[5] There are high income White American families in North Oak Cliff who send their children to Rosemont due to the magnet program; overall 66% of the students as of 2018 were classified as low income.

The Rosemont Early Childhood Parent-Teacher Association or RECPTA is focused on fundraising for Rosemont; [6] originally known as the Rosemont Preschool Association, it as of 2010 was the oldest parent-teacher association of an early childhood program as it was first established in 1926. In the local area the nickname for the group is the "Mommy Mafia". [7] RECPTA holds an auction party each year, with about $30,000 netted per session. [8] In 2018 the organization had tension between the board, which wished to use funds to benefit other schools, and the membership, which wanted the board to solely focus on Rosemont. [6]
