Ramona Elementary

Ramona Elementary sits in Hemet, a high-desert community in the San Jacinto Valley where the cost of living is more accessible than much of Southern California and families tend to put down real roots. The school serves a student body that faces some genuine challenges, and while test scores fall below state averages, it's part of a district that works hard to support kids in a community that's working hard too. Families drawn to Hemet's slower pace and affordable neighborhoods will find a school that's embedded in that same tight-knit, working-class spirit.
