Romona has exceeded our expectations! Incredible school. Goes beyond any supports its students in ways I never knew were possible in public school. We love it.

We love Romona! Our kids are excited to go to school every day and the teachers and administration make it easy to communicate with them and know what’s happening at school. As someone who didn’t love going to school, I’m so happy to see my kids excited almost everyday to go learn.

We relocated to the district last year, and our son is enjoying his time at school. The principal is exceptionally kind and caring, and the majority of the teachers are super nice.

They seem really behind the times. If your kid looks and acts like the majority group, they may find their place, but even so, it doesn’t appear that kids feel free in this district to be and express themselves. I don’t believe this is a healthy environment.
