Steve Ferreira - Assistant Principal/Athletic Director
I am honored to serve as the Athletic Director at Rancho Verde High School. I have been in education for 13 years, and I’m in my second year here at the Ranch. I have been an Athletic director for the last 8 years, during that time I have served as the league coordinator, scheduler, and CBAADA Rep. Before becoming and athletic director, I taught middle and high school PE, coached varsity softball, varsity baseball and varsity football.
I grew up and went to school in Riverside. I played baseball for 4 years at Cal Baptist University where I completed my undergraduate, teaching credential, and graduate degree. I also met my beautiful wife Ali at CBU. Ali and I have 5 kids, Twins Madden and McKenna are 11 Years old. Our middle son Kayden is 10, and our twin boys Cooper and Corbin are 8 years old. Yes, that is correct, we have 2 sets of twins.
I always loved being an athlete. I was fortunate enough to have played High School, College, and Professional Baseball. My athletic career provided me with so many great experiences that without a doubt helped shape the person I am today. Now as an athletic director, sports continue to be a huge part of my life. I have a chance to help give our student athletes some of those same great experiences. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to work with the amazing staff and students at Rancho Verde High School. I look forward to helping our programs carry on the long-standing tradition of athletic excellence!
