Dear Windsong Ranch Families,
Happy Halloween! We loved seeing so many families at our annual Trunk or Treat event. Those candy bags were FULL!! Thank you to the PTO for organizing the event and to all of our families for donating candy! If you are trick or treating this weekend, I hope you have the best time! This was one of my favorite things to do with my girls when they were little...soak up every minute of them letting you take them around!
Mark your calendars for Prosper ISD's annual Grandparents & Special Friends Day. This year's event will be held on 11/19 and 11/20. The Grandparents Special Friends newsletter went out earlier this week, click here if you missed it!
Have a great weekend and we'll see you back at The Ranch on Monday!

Veterans Day Celebration
We are excited to welcome our local heroes for our annual Veterans Day Parade. We know many of our families wish to attend the event at Rushing, which is scheduled for 8:30 AM, so we have pushed our parade start time back to 9:30 AM to allow everyone the chance to participate in both celebrations. If you are planning to walk in the parade, please sign up using this Verkada link.
We will also be creating a slideshow to celebrate our Veterans. Please send a photo of your service member to Holly Gadberry by Friday, November 6th and include the following:
- name, branch, and rank of service member
- student's name and relation
- teacher's name
If you submitted your photo last year, please confirm with Ms. Holly that we have it and can use that one again this year.
Guidance Lessons
During the week of November 2-6, we will be conducting anti-victimization lessons for 2nd and 3rd grade. If your child has an opt-out, they will not participate in the lesson.
