Rancho has been and continues to be an incredible environment for my children. We knew from the moment we toured the school, that Rancho was the best choice for our family. The kids are incredibly engaged, challenged, respectful and well-behaved. The standards set by the administration, teachers, parents, and ultimately the students, are very high. It's the best, we love it!
How great that this school is now a neighborhood schoool so that students who live close can walk to it. This school has the same curriculum as all the other schools in town. Certainly the teachers will do a great job teaching the socioeconomic disadvantaged and english language learners that will now be a much larger percentage of the student population.
Rancho Elementary has such a wonderful staff and family community, something it takes years and years to build and to be successful at We are so lucky to attend our school of choice.
Such a great school of choice. Amazing teachers, parents and students. This school should be celebrated for it's successes.
I love Rancho because the faculty really care about the welfare of every child and the parents are so involved with the school: it's a top notch education!
The parent and teacher invovlement is incredible and the learning environment allows the teachers to bring out the best in our children
There is so much parent & family involvement in this school that it feels more like a big family than a school!
Rancho is the best. The teacher stimulate each child according to their abilities. My child has learned so much in Kindergarten. We are just now entering the 3rd semester and she is reading fluently and is able to do additions mentally. This school is lottery based, but it is worth the every effort.
Rancho is the best. It not only pushes the kids, it pushes the parents to get involved and stay involved. There is no magic to the formula - when parents are invested in the outcome, the kids excel.
I love Rancho. I like the way parents get to interact with the teachers and principal as well as I like the volunteering opportunity as it gives us more insight about what our kids are doing in the class and their progress.
