Principal's Message
Rancho Romero is one of four elementary schools in Contra Costa County to be selected as California Distinguished School in 1998 by the California Department of Education. A major contributing factor to this designation is the partnership that exists between home and school. The Rancho Romero believes that children learn best in a safe, nurturing environment with parents and teachers working together to help students achieve school wide standards and goals.

History
Rancho Romero School was built in 1959. At that time it consisted of 12 classrooms and a small teachers' room/office combination. In 1961, a main office, kindergarten, library, multi-use room and additional classrooms were added. At present, there are 556 students and 25 self-contained classrooms. Measure A funds were used during the 1993-94 school year for a 2.5 million dollar reconstruction of the entire school. In 1998, Rancho was designated by the Alamo Parks and Recreation Committee (R7A) to receive $350,000 for field and playground renovations and to establish park amenities for the community.
