Weekly Update
Hello Wonderful Ranger Families!
This week teachers have been meeting as building teams to reflect on instruction and work to ensure all students' needs are being met. Our students are finishing their first math unit of the year over the next week and have been working hard. Next week we will be celebrating our Rangers during our monthly assembly. This month we focused on kindness and it has been wonderful to see students including others and showing empathy. We hope you all enjoy the weekend!
Just a reminder that gum and candy aren't allowed at school. This can be a distraction for students and is often discarded under chairs and tables.
Picture Day is this Thursday, October 3rd!
Students will be photographed by O'Connor Photography Studio on 10/3/24.

Dental Day is October 9th. This is an optional service. Only students with a completed permission form will be seen by our visiting hygienist. Watch for the permission slips to come home with your student.
A reminder that all medication, even over the counter, must have a written/signed authorization from your LHCP and be kept in the health room. This paperwork must be renewed every school year. This is the state law.
Please contact the health room with any questions or concerns that you may have.
