School Notes:
  • Rancho Alamitos High School is located in Garden Grove, California. It is member of the Garden Grove Unified School District.
  • School mascot controversy: The school's student body is known as the Vaqueros, a Spanish type of cowboy figure, though Rancho students tend to shorten its name to "Vaq." Until the mid-70's the school mascot had been "Poco," a cartoon of a short male dressed in a large poncho with a throw blanket over one shoulder and a large sombrero on his head, covering the eyes. It was at this time that the Hispanic club, Mecca, decided it was time to protest the stereotype of Mexicans and change the mascot. Poco was soon replaced with the politically-correct logo of a "boot spur" that you might see today, although a large bold "V" seems to be more common.
