Principal Message

Dear Rancho Community,

What a Year – Together, We Did It!

As we wrap up this incredible school year, I want to take a moment to thank our entire Rancho community—students, families, and staff—for your unwavering support, partnership, and heart. This year, we’ve seen our students grow in amazing ways—academically, socially, and emotionally. They’ve shown resilience, curiosity, and kindness every step of the way.

Our theme has been clear all year: #Togetherwecan—and it’s true. Together, we created a space where students could thrive and belong. Your involvement, encouragement, and care have made a lasting impact.

As we head into summer, I encourage all our Rancho Eagles to keep reading, exploring, and making memories with the people you love. Some of the best learning happens in everyday moments—on walks, during family meals, or while sharing stories together.

Have a safe, restful, and joyful summer!

With gratitude,
Cath

Yearbooks are Landing

If you pre-ordered a yearbook, your student will receive theirs from their teacher on Monday.

We have a very small number of extra yearbooks that will be available in the office on Monday for $30 (cash or check made out to Rancho PTA).

Yearbooks are first come first served and when they're gone, they're gone!

Parent Square Update

Over the Summer, the District resets the Parent Sq. App to make all the new classes, which deletes all the nice photos many Rancho teachers take and post all year long of their kids.

You may want to download any photos you want from this year. :)
