Book Comparisons[]
Main Article: Rosewood Day School
- In the book series, the girls instead go to "Rosewood Day" a private school with students from 1st Grade to 12th Grade in it.
- In the TV show, the students have no dress code, while in the books they have a Strict School Uniform (e.g. girls wear skirts and button up shirts, blouse or jumpers to school while guys wear blazers and ties).
- Ella Montgomery is not a teacher in the books, while in the TV series, she is a substitute and later a full-time replacement for Ezra Fitz, who left for a teaching position at Hollis.
- In the books, the song "1812 Overture" piped through the PA speakers. It is played in between classes because it's "mentally stimulating".
- In "Unbelievable", Aria mentions Rosewood High while talking to Jenna at an Art class in Hollis.
