It’s hard to believe we’re already heading into November! October was an exciting month full of Stampede celebrations. We were thrilled to have 99% of our families attend parent-teacher conferences. This is an incredible turnout that shows your strong commitment to your child’s learning.
Also, a big shout-out to our PAC for hosting a fun-filled Monster Mash! This school was hopping with excitement and so many creative costumes. Thank you to all of you that volunteered to make this event happen. The students had a blast!
Trimester 1 ends on November 14th. You will receive information on how to access your child's progress report electronically during the week of November 17th. However, please know you don’t have to wait to check in on your child’s learning progress. The online visual progress report is accessible to students and families at any time in Powerschool. This is a powerful tool that provides a comprehensive view of your child’s performance. If you have not yet created a parent access account, please call our office for instructions. This report is continuously updated by teachers and you can view it at any time.
In this season of gratitude, I want to once again share my heartfelt appreciation for the incredible partnership we have with our families. Your continued support and involvement make Silver Ranch such a special place for our students to learn, grow, and thrive.
Whether you’re attending conferences, volunteering, joining PAC events, or simply encouraging your child each day, your efforts strengthen our school community in countless ways. I am so thankful for the trust, collaboration, and positivity you bring to our shared work. Together, we’re creating meaningful experiences and lasting memories for our students.
Thank you for being an essential part of the Stampede family.
Better Together — We are the Stampede!
Mrs. Jordan
With the recent time change, we’re excited to return to outdoor recess in the mornings! Students were quick to notice the extra daylight and are eager to be back outside.
Beginning tomorrow, we’ll return to our regular recess routine. Students will have the choice to go outside, joining walking club in the gym, or enjoy games and coloring indoors. We’ll continue to adjust as the daylight changes later in the season.
THANK YOU!!
Thank you all for making this year’s Silver Ranch Monster Mash another successful event! Special thanks to the Monster Mash Committee and all parent and staff volunteers for your time and effort in creating a festive event with so many activities for families!
If you have any suggestions for next year’s event or feedback from this year’s event, please take a moment to complete our feedback survey!

Giddy Up Cart
Thank you so much to everyone who has been donating snacks and refreshments for the staff “Giddy Up Goodies” snack cart! The cart is taken around once a month for all staff to enjoy sweet and salty treats and drinks! Each month we restock the cart for our next outing and are always accepting donations of snacks and beverages to keep things going! Some of the most popular snacks are Chomps meat sticks, Popcorners, and Protein Bars while some of the most popular refreshments are Bubblr’s, iced coffee, and pop! All donations can be dropped off in the office at your convenience.
During student’s Library Media class time we have been talking a lot about privacy and security.
When kids start to go online, whether they’re playing multiplayer games, using educational apps, or just following their curiosity on Google, it’s important that they understand the basics of online privacy and safety. With general guidelines around what information is and isn’t OK to share, and some help from parents when they’re unsure, kids can have fun and learn a lot in the digital world.

Our Lost and Found is bursting at the seams! Please take time to look through these items to see if your home is where they truly belong. We will be donating all items that are not claimed on or before Wednesday, November 26.
