El Rancho Charter School
August 6, 2020
Registration
When confirming your data in Parent Portal, please make sure to check your phone numbers, email addresses, mailing address, and emergency contacts.
Please do not bring any registration documents to textbook pick-up. All forms should be scanned and uploaded in the registration form and purchases should be done online at the webstore.
As a reminder, all registration documents should be completed before your textbook pick-up appointment. Binder Reminders are a required purchase, even for distance learning, for students can use it as an organizational tool.
Technology Needs Survey
This fall students will be expected to follow a more structured schedule. In order to participate in class students will need a device to work with. We encourage students to use their own devices like desktop computers, laptops, or iPads/tablets. Students should not use their smartphone as a device for school. However, we understand that may not be possible in some homes. We ask that all families fill out the Technology Needs Survey for the 2020-2021 school year by Friday, August 7th.
OUSD also added questions about technology to Parent Portal. You may skip those, if possible, and fill our survey out below. El Rancho will be responsible for distributing devices to our students.
