Weekly Update
We had another great week at Elk Ridge! Students wrapped up Unit 2 in Math this week and started Unit 3. Students are working hard at Elk Ridge on a variety of skills, from counting and writing numbers all the way to adding and subtracting decimals! Our PTA delivered Elk Ridge Spirit wear and did fundraiser pick-up. We are anticipating getting school pictures back Monday or Tuesday of next week.
Giving Tree
We are continuing our tradition of the Giving Tree at Elk Ridge. We are now accepting donations of gifts and coats for kids aged from birth to 18. You can drop off new, unwrapped gifts in the Elk Ridge office weekdays between 8:30-4:00 pm until Wednesday, December 1st. We will also be sending letters home next week if your family is in need of assistance.
Half Day Lunches
On our upcoming half days, we are able to provide sack lunches if you fill out this form ahead of time. This form allows you to sign up for lunches on half days for the remainder of the year.
Lost and Found
Our Lost and Found is overflowing! If your child is missing a coat please encourage them to check our Lost and Found or please contact our office. Parents are also welcome to come and check the Lost and Found after 3:30 each day. We will wheel the cart outside after dismissal on Wednesday before Thanksgiving as well for parents to look through. Any unclaimed items are donated to the Donald Loomis Clothing Bank over Winter Break.
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! Have a great weekend!
Reminders
- Please contact the office if there are any changes to your child's end of day transportation for the day.
- Cloth face coverings or disposable face masks cloth face coverings are required indoors and are optional for students outdoors. (A cloth face covering is anything that completely covers the mouth and nose, fits securely, and is made of tightly woven fabric.)
- Please keep your child home when they are sick or have been exposed to COVID. If your student has been exposed to COVID, please call the office to let us know. 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!
