Wrangler Families,


What an AMAZING Jog-A-Thon event! Thank you to all of our sponsors and volunteers for making the event so successful. Our students were very happy to jog for our school and they did a great job!


As a reminder there is no school tomorrow, Thursday, November 11th. Looking to this week we have our School Site Council meeting on Wednesday and our November Pep Rally on Friday. Don't forget to dress up for our spirit day: crazy hair and neon day!


Have a great three day weekend!


Happy Trails!

Minimizing Classroom Interruptions!

Lunches and Forgotten Items from Home


In order to minimize classroom interruptions, we have implemented procedures with forgotten items. We are receiving a large amount of deliveries for lunches, instruments, water bottles, library books, clothing and backpacks. Please encourage your students to be prepared and check for their belongings before leaving your house. We appreciate your support!


  • Lunches


Please note that lunches for grades 1-5 that are delivered to the school will be placed on the table outside of the cafeteria. Students should collect them from the table. They will not be delivered to the classroom.


Lunches for TK and Kindergarten will be delivered to the classroom until the end of October and then after October will be taken to the cafeteria.


  • Instruments


Forgotten Instruments will be kept in the front office. Students can come to the front to see if their parent has dropped it off.

A Note from our friendly crossing guard, Mr. Mike!

Hello all,


Many of you know me as Mr. Mike the crossing guard at White Chapel place and Sandhurst Ave. Every morning and afternoon I have the pleasure of greeting my students and parents.


My job is to ensure that everyone crosses safely. There is an issue that I would like to bring to the attention of the parents when crossing at an intersection. Please wait at the curb until I I am standing in the middle of the intersection and say "ok to cross". Often children and parents will arrive at four corners at the same time. I need to cross one group at a time while another group waits their turn.


While parents are able to safely cross their children themselves without my assistance, many children as they get older cross on their own. It's important that they get in the habit of obeying the crossing guard.


I meet many pets every day too. One of them, is a handsome Labrador who surprises me because he looks both ways when he arrives at the curb. Surely we want our children to do the same. I appreciate your support in keeping our kids safe!

Blood Drive Coming to Lang Ranch

A blood drive truck will be on site on January 18th, March 22nd and May 31st. Our goal is to get 55 adults registered to give blood at each date. Please use the QR code below to register. If you have any questions, please contact Joe Pisani at jpisani@conejousd.org.
