Ranger Families,
We need your help!
Our campus was recently designated as a CEP (Community Eligibility Provision) campus, which means we are required to collect an Income Verification Form from certain families. This form is different from the free and reduced-price meal application that families have completed in previous years.
The Income Verification Form will be sent home with eligible students today. Please check your child’s backpack, complete the form, and return it to school tomorrow. Not all students will receive a form. Only families from whom we need to collect information will receive one.
The information collected is extremely important. It helps our school qualify for valuable funding and resources that directly support student programs and services. It also plays a role in our state accountability measures.
As a special incentive, any student who returns their completed form this week will receive a special prize on Friday!
Thank you for your partnership and support. Your prompt response is greatly appreciated and helps ensure our students and school receive the resources they deserve.
Sincerely,
Ms. Allen

Ranger Families,
We’re excited to share that some of our Rangers have been working hard alongside our local Walmart to create a special display for their upcoming grand reopening ceremony on September 25th at 8:00 AM!
We want to give a huge shout-out to all of our 5th-grade classes for their hard work, creativity, and dedication throughout this project. Their efforts have truly made this a special collaboration, and we can’t wait to showcase their work and celebrate with our community!
Thank you to our amazing Rangers and everyone who helped make this project possible! 💙

Dear Rangers Families,
Our school conducted a practice LOCKDOWN Drill today. LOCKDOWN drills are conducted to ensure students and staff practice the Standard Response Protocols and know how to respond should a LOCKDOWN occur at our school.
Our students and staff did an excellent job during the drill, and we will debrief with our local first responders to continue to identify any areas for improvement. Thank you for your continued support.
