The Weekly Update #4

Hello Longhorns,

Thank you to our ASB, Athletics, and Performing Arts programs for an incredible Homecoming!

We had the pleasure of previewing our almost complete band field show, which transported us straight to London through fantastic music and creative props. We still have one special song left to tie the full performance together—it is going to be awesome!

We were also thrilled to celebrate our brand-new field and track with a special ribbon-cutting ceremony. Seeing our sports teams back home with fans cheering them on in the stands has been an absolute delight—the energy in the stadium has truly brought life back to our campus. Lastly, our Longhorns were transported to Italy at the Homecoming dance! A huge thank you to ASB for their amazing decor, detailed planning, and high-energy Pep Assembly.

As we wrap up October, please remember that the 12-week grading period closes this Friday. Be sure to check Aeries to ensure academic focus remains your top priority.

We are looking forward to a spooky Friday as we celebrate Halloween on campus! Please review the costume expectations below before Friday. Lastly, join us at Vista High School this Friday evening as we celebrate our honored rivalry football game. For more details and spirit info, check out the ASB Instagram account.

Let's finish October Strong! Have a great week at the Ranch!

Longhorns:

We look forward to seeing everyone in costume this Friday, October 30th! If you plan to dress up, please review our costume guidelines below. These expectations apply to all school activities, including the football game at Vista High School:

• Visibility: Faces must remain clear and recognizable. Please refrain from wearing masks or heavy face makeup.

• Props: Unsafe props must be left at home. Any item that resembles a weapon or poses a safety risk is strictly prohibited.
• Dress Code: Costumes must comply with the school dress code policy outlined in the Student Handbook.
• Functionality: Costumes should not distract from learning or interfere with classroom activities. Please keep size and mobility in mind.

Please join me for a morning of casual coffee and conversation. I've invited some of our counseling team representatives and our community liaison to join us. We'll discuss how to help your child's mental health during the holiday season. I look forward to meeting all of our community members. We'll have conversation available in both English and Spanish. Please RSVP using the link below.

See you there!
