Dear Terrier Students and School Family,
Welcome to another Beyond Amazing week at Ramona. This week we are focusing on the active learning in SPARK. (please see Kindness Week schedule below). Active learning means you are completing your school work, staying determined on your schoolwork, and/or learning everyday. School is for learning and we are fortunate you are here at Ramona with us to learn. We care about all of you and will do everything possible to help you.
This Tuesday is the 100th school day of the school year.

Mr. Joseph Ochoa
