History

The Los Nietos School District (the oldest district in California) has acted as a school district under the laws of the State of California since August 12, 1861. In 1885, part of the district was made into the Pio Pico School District. In 1924, a school was built on the present site of the Los Nietos Middle School at 11425 East Rivera Road in Los Nietos, California. When it was rebuilt, the floor plan was identical to the building that had been torn down but the structural design was changed from brick to stucco. Presently, the Los Nietos Elementary School District consists of four schools, three K-6 schools; Ada S. Nelson School and Aeolian School, both located in Whittier, Rancho Santa Gertrudes School in Santa Fe Springs, and one 7-8 middle school; Los Nietos Middle School. District Facts

First, we recognized our incredible MESA teams, who proudly represented Los Nietos School District at the MESA competition held at UC Irvine earlier this semester.

We then honored Team Plant Vitals—one of our MESA teams that advanced to both the regional and state competitions. Their hard work, innovation, and dedication earned them 1st Place in the entire State of California for the middle school division! 🏆🌱

Congratulations to Angel Leon, Andrew Lim, and Andrew Valdivia! Your accomplishments are extraordinary, and we are cheering you on as you head to Johns Hopkins University in Maryland this June to compete against the nation’s top teams at the National Competition. We believe in you!

Lastly, we celebrated our English Learner students who successfully met all requirements to redesignate. This milestone reflects their perseverance, commitment, and academic growth. We are so proud of each and every one of them! 🎓✨

In addition, our school principals presented their annual update to the Board, sharing the outstanding programs, engaging events, and academic successes taking place across our schools. Their presentations highlighted the incredible work of our students, staff, and families and demonstrated the many ways our schools are fostering achievement, connection, and growth.
