My son loves this middle school and doesn't quite understand why the school ratimgs are low wven though he foind the teachers, the curriculum and enviornment great. The school's facilities are modern and well-maintained, providing a comfortable and stimulating learning environment. The administration is responsive and communicative, keeping parents informed about school events and student progress.What stands out most, however, is the strong sense of community and belonging that permeates every aspect of school life. From the welcoming atmosphere to the inclusive policies, Rancho truly feels like a family.

Great School! Very hard-working and engaging teachers. Their international educational trip is a must-do and kids come back very confident and with an independent changed personality. Highly recommend this school.

We have moved from Saratoga area. I feel the current rating of this school is not accurate. It should be 9 IMO as we moved with rating school and did not feel anything less here. We feel pretty happy about this school so far. My kid got amazing teachers so far in these 2 years of her time. This school got best environment with large play fields around. I strongly recommend this school. L

Most teacher are very good. parents in this school are terrible. They are not follow direction to enter or get out campus. They insulted if you approached to tell them follow rule.

I came to this school as a new person 3 months before school was about to end. This was a year ago in 7th grade. I was scared as to if I would fit in and such. I found a lot of friends here. This is an amazing school. Of course this is like any other school, there are the cliques and everything. The only difference is that these cliques are actually open to letting other people in as friends. I should know. Being an military child, I have moved a lot and this school, by far, has been one of the best schools I've gone too.

Rancho is the best school I 've ever go to. I heard they just reconstructed the school. I went there, it looked beautiful. All I have at Rancho was good experience. Everyone there is so nice. I love Rancho!!! I really hope I can win 5000 dollars for the best school ever.

At first i thought this school would be really scary but after a few days i really liked it. Some teachers are a little harder than others but that helps me learn. I am going to miss this school very much.

I'm really gonna miss this school, because I feel like the teachers actually care about me. It's also pretty safe here, and the lunches are good.
