I would just like to say that there are 2 female kindergarden teachers who love their job and what they do my daughter attended her first year of school here and I must say that coming into a new school year with different core standards for the students made a quite challenging time those two teachers made it look so simple by the way they handled themselves and how they taught their classes thank you again for giving a parent piece of mind knowing that my daughter was being taken care of by a couple of teachers who really love their job

I was sad to see the last principal go, but I know things change. The students' scores keep improving with the lack of funding from the school district. Thank goodness our children have such great teachers.

This is my son's 3rd year at Ronzone, and things just keep getting better every year. His teacher's have been awesome. I know their test scores are a little below average, but with so many kids that don't speak english very well, what can you expect.

About the tests


In 2010-2011 Nevada used the Criterion Referenced Test (CRT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in reading and math, and in grades 5 and 8 in science and writing. The CRT is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Nevada. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
