Stallion Families,
Wow did we have an awesome end to our week last week. Friday started out with our Step-It-Up Day of Awesomeness. We had another successful Step-It-Up fundraiser that culminated with the Day of Awesomeness on Friday. Our students spent the morning enjoying a DJ dance party and more than a half dozen different inflatables. This year included a maze that was super fun.
The awesomeness continued in the afternoon with our Student Council Veterans Day Ceremony. The ceremony included a number of Veterans from the Sonoma Ranch community. We were so very fortunate to have so many Vets participate. This included the great grandfather of one of our Kindergartners who served our country during World War II. We are grateful to all the Veterans who joined us to mark this special day.
PTSO Restaurant Night!
Restaurant nights are an easy and great opportunity to do something that benefits our school. Each restaurant sets it's donation amount or percentage, and this is a big one! We are grateful to Someburros for supporting our school! Just mention Sonoma Ranch when you order!
Student Artwork!
The talented kindergarten through 6th grade Sonoma Ranch Stallions had the opportunity to complete an artwork for Art To Remember. This is a virtual art show of all students' hard work. Take a scroll at all the wonderful submissions. Your student's artwork is also available for purchase on items to raise extra funds for the art program . Click below to check out the awesomeness!
