About Us

Santa Rosa City Schools is the largest school district in Sonoma County, approximately an hour north of San Francisco. 

Our 2026 strategic goals guide our actions to serve our students and community: Academics and Enrichment: Provide outstanding educational and enrichment programs that motivate and prepare all students for their respective futures.

Safety and Security: Provide learning environments that are physically and emotionally safe for all students and staff.

Fiduciary: Act as a trusted agent of the community’s educational assets.

Recruit, Retain, and Support Student-Centered Staff: Recruit, retain, and support high-quality staff who center students and represent the District’s core values.

Communication:  Communicate clearly, consistently, and effectively to build trust, strengthen relationships, and engage the community in support of student success.

Santa Rosa City Schools is on the traditional territory and homelands of the Pomo People, traditional territory and homelands of the Coast Miwok People, and we honor with gratitude the land itself and the people who have stewarded it throughout the generations. 

This land acknowledgement calls us to commit to continuing to learn how to be better stewards of the land we inhabit. By offering this Land Acknowledgement, we affirm Indigenous sovereignty and will work to hold Santa Rosa City schools more accountable to the needs of American Indian and Indigenous peoples.
