El Rancho Unified School District

The El Rancho Unified School District is located in the City of Pico Rivera, California.

School closures
During the summer of 2008, the El Rancho school board voted to close four elementary schools (Pio Pico, Obregon, Selby Grove, Meller) in order to meet the new demands placed upon them by budget cuts and declining enrollment. Along with the school closures, an estimated 80 teachers lost their positions.
