I went to this school from kindergarten til the 6th grade. Now im a freshman. The teacher's there are the best, the tricks they use to help us i still use to this very day! I rate this school 5 stars! I love and miss you all!
The office staff is outstanding. The teachers we have had (especially mrs. Munley in music and the former p.E. Teacher) have been super committed and incredible. The principal needs people skills. If our decision rode on him to send our kids to school there or not we would not- but the rest of the staff is so great that we choose to stay.
I disagree with the comment below Great Special Education Teachers. Do your research before sending your kids to this school if they have special ed needs. We are almost done at Sonoma Ranch for special ed but things have really changed over the last two years. When a principal and school psychologist don t want to be there to help the kids who need it, it is downhill from there. If your child doesn t have special ed needs, the classroom teachers are wonderful and the Sonoma Ranch community is great.
We two kids attending SR, we have nothing but kudos.
Great Special Education Teachers/Aides.
This school has great teachers and a fantastic PTSO!! Wonderful. This year though has been such a disappointment in the principal. We have been spoiled for many years prior. It is a sad shame that we received him. All we ask is that a leader actually likes children and wants to be around them. Stiffed necked, snooty people don't belong with children. Disapointment is on the minds of so many of the parents. Not many are speaking up as far as we know, but we know the truth. I feel soooo sorry for the teachers also.
I love Sonoma Ranch! I went there for all 7 years. The school is great, the teachers really cared, and the principal (both principals) were very involved!!!!!!
My child has been at Sonoma Ranch for 3 years. This is an excellent school - from academics to teacher/parent involvement. The communication is wonderful. When we transferred here, everyone made my son feel welcome!
Fantastic school. Head Teacher is fantastic, staff dedicated. Good academic programs and extracurricular activities. PTO is very active
I find Sonoma Ranch Elementary top notch. Starting from the principle to the teachers they provide a great and safe learning environment for my children. I love the 'Character Counts' program that emphasis on respect for yourself and others. It is also nice to have the option for your child to choose to play an instrument in traditional band or strings (violin, cello, base). There is also the 'fun run' the kids love and our 'family picnic' (that was a lot of fun). Sonoma Ranch gives you the feeling of a big family.
