Weekly Update
Thank you to all who voted during this election. We are incredibly grateful to continue so many programs that support our students!
This afternoon we had our Ranger Award Assemblies for each grade level. We celebrated students at each grade level for January's trait of "Never give up". Our trait for February is "Empathy".
Report cards will be sent home today, as well as progress reports for students receiving Special Education services. You should also soon be receiving a letter about Spring Conferences. Every student will receive a letter regarding Spring Conferences and will let you know if your child will be scheduled for a conference or not. During Spring Conferences, our teachers will meet with a smaller number of families to work together to develop support plans for students with academic, social, or behavioral needs.
Voter Turnout Contest
Mrs. Carlson's class was our winner with 130% of her class returning ballots!

Kid's Heart Challenge
Elk Ridge is currently doing the Kids Heart Challenge (aka - Jump Rope for Heart). So far, our students have helped raise over $4,100 for the American Heart Association! If you are using the envelope instead of the online fundraising option, please wait to send it to school until February 14th, the final day of the fundraiser. Please contact Mrs. Robbins (mrobbins@whiteriver.wednet.edu) with any questions. Thank you!
Volunteers
We are now able to welcome volunteers back into the building! If you are interested in volunteering at Elk Ridge, please fill out a Volunteer Application through our Frontline Hiring system. Specific information regarding volunteer requirements is available there.
Thank you, Ranger Families, for your partnership and support!
Reminders
- Please contact the office if there are any changes to your child's end of day transportation for the day.
- Please keep your child home when they are sick. Please call our office if they have been exposed to COVID so that we can follow up with our new test to stay protocol.Thank you!
- Please be mindful during arrival and drop-off times, whether you are on our campus or on a neighboring street. Our goal is for students to arrive and leave school safely each day! Please remember that drop off is not a place to park. If you are here early and want to wait until the bell rings to send your student out, please park in the parking lot rather than waiting in the drop off loop. Thank you!
