CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CA (May 8, 2025) — Our awarded teachers and our Concord schools would benefit from non-profits, corporations and medium-sized business donations to reward the outstanding Mt. Diablo Unified School District teachers with gift certificates and provide the Mt. Diablo Education Foundation with critically needed grant funding in their honor.

Our Concord public schools need the tech resources for our future leaders and to stimulate lifelong education of our future workforce and future voters, whom we want to be able to live and work in our own diverse, financially healthy neighborhoods.

Rocco’s Ristorante Pizzeria

Mr Eber –
I just read with great interest your recent review of Rocco’s in The Pioneer [“Rocco’s Ristorante hits 25 years of family-style flavor” April 2025 Pioneer]. Rocco’s is already a family favorite but it was nice to get to know the owner a little better. Also, your descriptions of several non-pizza menu items made my mouth water and ponder ordering something “different” next time we choose Rocco’s. Although, when we’re jonesin’ for Rocco’s, it’s a pretty strong momentum for their pizza.
Thanks for writing it!

-Scott
