Dear Rancho Families
Next Week marks the last week of school before our 2 week Spring Break and Progress Report Cards for students who are at-risk academically and with attendance.
I hope this message finds you well. As partners in your child's education, we would like to extend our gratitude for your continuous support and involvement in ensuring their success. Your collaboration with us is invaluable, and we deeply appreciate your dedication to your child's academic journey.
We are writing to kindly remind you of the importance of student attendance and punctuality. Regular attendance and arriving at school on time are fundamental components of academic success. Consistent attendance fosters a positive learning environment and allows students to fully engage with their studies. We kindly ask for your support in ensuring that your child arrives at school promptly each day and maintains regular attendance. The school gates open at 8:30am. Students promptly transition into their classroom at 8:45am so they can be ready to learn at the start of the school day at 8:50am. Students arriving near or at 8:50am arrive to a class that has already transitioned into the academic day.
Additionally, we want to inform you that Progress Reports will be sent home next week for students who may have academic concerns in which their Progress Report will indicate if they are at-risk academically and if retention may be considered Some teachers may also send home Progress Report to send you an update of their current academic status, however the Progress Report may not indicate that they are at-risk academically. These reports serve as a tool to communicate your child's progress and highlight areas where improvement may be needed. We encourage you to review these reports attentively and reach out to us with any questions or concerns you may have.
Your involvement in your child's education is vital, and we are committed to working together to support their academic growth and success. Thank you for your cooperation and continued partnership in ensuring the best possible outcomes for your child.
Should you have any questions or require further assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to your child's teacher. Together, we can make a positive difference in your child's educational journey.
Sincerely,
JoeAnna Hernandez, Principal
