Casa Ramona Academy represents an excellent opportunity for those students who are serious about really obtaining a quality education; the school enjoys a small number of students and has teachers that really care for the student's education. The teachers at this school are very commited to the students; thus, students get to know their teachers and vice versa. This is a huge plus, a wonderful opportunity away from overcrowded schools, where the student is just a number and the personal attention to students is lacking.

Welcome to the 2009-2010 school year at Casa Ramona Academy for Technology, Community, and Education School. It is a privilege for me to have the opportunity to serve you and your children as your founding principal. I am excited about the achievements we have had over the last two years such as: a 78% Math CAHSEE passing rate since 2008, an API score of 609 in 2008, our participation in the California Interscholastic Federation High School Sports, a school award from Assemblywoman Wilmer Amina Carter in 2009, the accreditation from the Western Association of School and Colleges as a K-12 school, a safe and orderly school, a strong school culture, the BTSA approval and a partnership with Cal State University San Bernardino, and the San Bernardino Valley College.
The faculty and staff are looking forward to working with you to provide an outstanding education for your children. I truly do feel that our teachers will make sure that your children are meeting and exceeding all grade level materials.
As we look forward to a successful year, there are several ways that you can help us make this school year a great experience for your child(ren):
• Consistent attendance is essential. In case of being absent, please send a note or call the school office to clear absences.
• If there is a change in address or telephone number or emergency contact, notify the school office as soon as possible. In case of emergency or an illness, it is important that we have accurate and up to date information.
• Make sure you son/daughter are in uniform from Monday to Thursday. Uniforms are available at JC Penney, and other stores around the area. Please see the instruction sheet for the appropriate uniform for your student.
• Complete your 20 hours of community service in one year.
• Please attend your son/daughter sport events and extra curricular activities.
• Parents need to check your son/daughter homework on a daily basis.
