A message from our principal

Dear Parents,
 
Welcome to the 2011-2012 school year. We are off to a great start with an outstanding and dedicated staff. I would like to thank each of you for your support and for entrusting the staff at Ranch Elementary with your children.

Our school vision this year is Racing To Excellence. We want each individual student to accomplish excellence thereby excelling to their fullest potential. The staff and I will challenge your children intellectually, grow them socially, and guide them to independent thinking, character development, and problem solving. 

As part of our commitment to the Professional Learning Community, we have developed the following belief statements: 

  1. We believe that all people have dignity, worth, and value. Each person deserves to be treated with fairness and respect.
  2. We believe that education is a responsibility shared by the students, home, school, and community.
  3. We believe that all students can learn when provided a strong academic program that recognizes and respects each child’s unique physical, social, emotional, and intellectual needs.
  4. We believe that school is part of a life-long learning process leading to new knowledge and personal growth.
  5. We believe that a structured and safe environment that promotes self discipline is the backbone of a positive learning environment.

 Together let’s make it an awesome year! Ranch Roadrunners Rule!

Susan Kruse, M.Ed.
