Ranger Report
May 3, 2024
Hello Ranger F families:
I hope everyone is well! Spring is a busy time at your high school and we are pushing forward with the last five weeks of school by continuing to deliver high quality instruction as well as planning for next year. Next Thursday, we are hosting the class of 2028 for our incoming 9th grade night. Many 8th graders visited our school this week to get a first hand look at what’s to come. I very much enjoyed meeting them and welcoming them to the school! As we approach May break and the end of the year, we are also focused on supporting our students to keep them on-track for graduation.
Many of you may have received an automated message regarding incomplete grades and next steps. Thank you all for talking to your student, reaching out to teachers, and partnering with us to end the school year strong. Remember, at Estacada High School the learning never stops and although a student may show an incomplete right now, we have many opportunities to keep learning and recover that grade. These opportunities include four more REID days, after school study sessions hosted by our teachers and summer school. Please see the summer school informational below to sign up if your student currently has an incomplete for the first semester or will still have essential learning standards to complete for second semester. If you have any questions or concerns regarding how we can best support your student please reach out to us.
-Go Rangers.

Please partner with us to ensure that your child is proficient in all essential learning standards. EHS teachers and counselors are working actively to reteach challenging concepts, reach out to families and create action plans for students who have not yet shown proficiency. We can do this!

A Focus on SBAC
Why - SBAC Matters:
We encourage high student participation in this test for multiple reasons. This test provides teachers with the data necessary to look at how our students are doing compared to other districts and allows us to make changes in our programs if needed. We do not receive any money for how our students do on this test, but it holds us accountable to ensure we provide a comparable education to other schools. For more information, see the Family guide linked below.

Classrooms are Cell Phone Free Zones
Life is full of distractions that keep us from performing our best.
Our expectation is that classrooms are cell phone free zones.
The classroom is a space for learning and engagement in preparation for a student’s next step in life. Join us in fostering this commitment to learning by:
Talking with your student about their cell phone use in school.
Be prepared to set limits and to collaborate with school staff in making learning a priority.
