Superintendent's Message 📢
Dear El Rancho Unified School District Community,
As we approach the final stretch of the school year, I am thrilled to reflect on the many accomplishments and celebrations that have taken place across our district. With just 30 instructional days left, I am inspired by the dedication and resilience of our students, parents, and staff as we work together to finish the year strong.
I want to take a moment to acknowledge the incredible achievements that have been made possible through our collective efforts. From academic milestones to extracurricular successes, our schools have been busy with activity and achievement. Whether it's a science fair win, a sports team victory, or a stellar performance in the arts, each accomplishment is due to the hard work and commitment of our entire school community.
As we gear up for state testing, I encourage all students to give their best effort and showcase their knowledge and skills. Your diligence and perseverance will lead to success, and I have full confidence in your abilities to excel on these assessments.
I also want to express my gratitude to the parents who attended Open House events and engaged with our teachers and staff. Your involvement and support play a crucial role in your child's education, and it was wonderful to see so many of you actively participating in these important events.
Looking ahead, I am excited to announce our upcoming Parent Summit, where we will come together to discuss ways to further support student learning and success. I encourage all parents to mark their calendars and join us for this collaborative and informative event.
In closing, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our students, parents, and staff for your dedication and hard work throughout the year. Together, we have made a difference in the lives of our students, and I am proud of all that we have accomplished together.
Sincerely,
Dr. Marco A. Villegas
Thank you for your dedication, enthusiasm, and commitment to excellence. Until next time!
