Message from Mrs. Wilken
Dear Trailblazer Families,
For all those Aztec, San Diego or just plain ol' good sports fans... what a great Final Four game this past weekend! Hopefully by the time you are reading this it will have been an even better Championship game for SDSU and our city.
🏀❤️🖤🤍🏀
As we head into our last week before spring break, I wanted to thank all of our families for your support of our first ever Stone Ranch PTA sponsored Read-a-thon. It was more successful than we anticipated and our students seemed to be very engaged and enjoying the extra minutes of reading and appreciating literature. Our students read for more than 2950 hours, and raised over $12,800 for our school! It's good to be a Trailblazer.
As always, proud to be your principal,
Mrs. Wilken

Staff Apprecation Week
It is Stone Ranch Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week at Stone Ranch! We have wonderful educators at Stone Ranch, so let's show them our appreciation. The PTA will be coordinating a staff luncheon on 4/4 and a breakfast on 4/7. Please look for an email from your class room parent for ways you can get involved such as having your child make card(s) for teachers and staff.
5th Grade Promotion Lawn Signs - On Sale Now
Stone Ranch PTA is also accepting donations for lawn signs for students in need. Our goal is to provide a sign to every 5th grade student at Stone Ranch.
Yearbooks are on sale now!
Online ordering for yearbooks is currently open. Pre-order and pay only $35 before they are sold out! Quantities are limited and a small amount of books may still be available for $40 at delivery time in June for students who did not preorder. Order today by clicking here. If you have questions, please contact Andie Villegas at stoneranchyearbook@gmail.com.
PUSD 2023-2024 Continuing Student Registration is STILL Open!
Our goal is 100%. We are at 76% of our current families having completed continued registration for their child/ren.
Please help us make sure all our current kiddos have a seat at stone ranch next year!
We MUST receive a completed digital packet for all returning students. This will allow for proper placement of your student for the 2023-2024 school year. This annual digital process will allow a family to complete one single “family” packet instead of completing one packet per student. Packets can be completed using any computer, tablet or smartphone with an internet connection.
Continuing Registration Steps:
1. Login and complete the digital registration packet online at the ParentVue portal: https://sis.powayusd.com/Packet
2. Review and complete the required forms located at the conclusion of the process. A packet is not considered finalized until this step is completed.
Please note: MEDICATION FORMS or ADDITIONAL SIGNED SITE SPECIFIC FORMS WILL NOT BE COLLECTED UNTIL SCHOOL BEGINS IN AUGUST FOR THE 2023-2024 SCHOOL YEAR.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this important process. We are looking forward to a fantastic 2023-2024 school year!
Thank You to our Read-a-Thon Sponsors!
Thank YOU to Community Partner!
Thank you to our Community Partner sponsor, Dr. Ellen Im Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics for their generosity and support!

Please remember to have your child wear their shirt every Thursday to show their Trailblazer spirit!
