Rancho Verde Elementary School

My niece and nephew attend Olmito Elementary School and it is a great school. The teachers are extremely well prepared and execute their tasks wonderfully. I have witnessed the homework assignments the children take home and it is impressive of how they DON'T teach the children to MEMORIZE, but actually learn. You don't see this in many schools. The Principal and Vice Principal actually call the children by their names. They definitely know their teachers and students. This school is beyond amazing. From the time the children arrive to the school to pick up time, the entire staff is very organized and keep things in order. I want my children to attend this school. It is remarkable and it challenges the children academically in the most efficient and effective manner.

From the previous years reviews, I would have to say, the DRE that was being lead or the lack of leadership, is a thing of the past. The current principal's enthusiasm to create a positive, welcoming, parent/teacher involved learning experience, can be felt throughout the campus. No one is left out when special opportunities or events occur on here. The new leadership gives its staff the chance to shine in their gifts and talents, outside of teaching, which in turn helps provide a greater experience to their students. As campuses begin to have less restrictions on them from COVID precautions, more clubs and groups are being created for students to be involved. Academically, students will be challenged to rise to achieve their best and given help where there may be weaknesses. As a parent, I really do love that my child is a student of Dora Romero. I look forward to her remaining years and helping make DRE the best school in the district.
