Hello Stallions!
We had a great first full week at the Ranch! Our PTSO Back to School Bash on Monday was a huge success! It looked like everyone was having a blast enjoying the pools and water slide. It was a fun time for everyone. Thank you PTSO for kicking off the year in a great way!

If you would rather that photos of your child were not included in any social media (Instagram/Twitter) or on our school website, please contact the office for an opt-out form.
If you plan to walk your student to campus I encourage you to park in the neighborhood behind school and use the crosswalk to enter through the back gate, or park in the neighborhood across from the front parking lot and use the crosswalk to accompany your student to campus. The front parking lot will be closed from 8:20 AM to 8:40 AM, and from 3:20 PM to 3:40 PM (2:20-2:40 on early release Wednesdays). The decision for this is completely for the safety of our students. We really appreciate your patience with the traffic around school at arrival and dismissal times.
Grandparents Day this year will on Friday, September 8th. Although it is a month away, I wanted to share with you that we are adjusting the plan for this wonderful day at the Ranch. We will host our Grandparents in the morning rather than at lunch time. The campus will be open in the morning, PTSO will serve doughnuts and juice and coffee in the cafeteria and our Bookfair will be in the library. We are still working out the details, and will share them soon! It should be an awesome day at the Ranch for everyone!
Tuesday is our first PTSO meeting of the year. These meetings are open to everyone. Please come and join us in the library at 5:30 PM.
Wednesday is an early release day with students heading home at 2:30 PM.
This Friday is a Stallion Style Day! Almost every Friday we will do a Stallion Style Day. We ask our students, faculty, and staff to wear black or gray or teal or their Stallion gear.
Next week we have Curriculum Night on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. This is an opportunity for the teachers to share with you about their classrooms and the curriculum we teach. The presentations are not geared toward students, so it would be best if you did not bring your students with you that evening. The times for each grade level are listed in the calendar. We look forward to seeing you!
