Dear Ocotillo Ridge Families,
Thank you for a great August! In addition to the great things happening on campus each day, we had a wonderful turnout for McTeacher Night, Donuts with GrownUps and PTA DQ Night. We are so grateful that you continue to show your support for our school.
So far this year we have already logged over 700 volunteer hours. Thank you volunteers! We love to have our parents, grandparents and community members on campus supporting our students and staff. If you are interested in volunteering (on campus or from home), please reach out to your child’s teacher.
As I look to the next few weeks at Ocotillo Ridge, I can hardly believe clubs are in full swing; it is already time for first quarter benchmark testing; Parent/Teacher Conferences are almost here, and then fall break begins. We have had a wonderful first quarter, and I look forward to seeing you at conferences in the coming weeks.
Conferences are extremely important as they provide opportunities for you, your child, and your child’s teacher to discuss your child’s progress. Our goal is to meet with 100% of families. If you are unable to attend conferences during the times available, please contact your child’s teacher to arrange for another opportunity.
Conferences can be scheduled directly online and will be held in person. An email from ORE School Communications will be sent on Tuesday, September 5, with specific sign up instructions and the schedule to choose a day and time. If you need any assistance signing up for conferences, please do not hesitate to call our front office. We are happy to help.
In an effort to highlight our students…I want to brag that 480 students have earned the Attendance Award for being at school and on time 95% of the time, from July 17th - August 31st. Each student will earn an award and a homework pass for their efforts. Keep it up Mountain Lions! Our next awards will be handed out for 95% attendance after the timeframe of September 1st - October 31st is complete.
Thank you for a great start to the year,
Mrs. Robold
Principal
