Sunset Ridge Intermediate

Hello Sunset Students! We have a great opportunity for you to show thanks to Veterans in our community! If you’d like to show your appreciation to Veterans and participate in our upcoming assembly, please make a poster or piece of art giving thanks for Veterans and take a picture of it. You can be in the picture with your poster or art, or not, that part is up to you! Send the picture by next Wednesday,11/4/20, to Noah.Swenson@ridgefieldsd.org and it will be included in our Veterans assembly. Thank you for participating and making this day special for our Veterans! Sincerely, Sunset Leadership

The Ridge parent group is committed to providing a great yearbook for Sunset Ridge students this year, but we NEED YOUR HELP! We are hoping to get all parents to submit a headshot of your student for the yearbook using this google form. At this time we are unsure if we will be able to do traditional school pictures with an outside company, so this is the next best option to ensure we still have a memorable yearbook! We would also love to see some candid pics of your student doing all things virtual this year! The only requirements are that pictures must be submitted through the linked googled form above, and pictures must only be of your student. Any pictures submitted that have multiple students will not be allowed unless we received authorization from ALL parents to use the picture. We will be including more "virtual" themed days and events this year in order to capture fun pics. Please feel free to send in ideas to theridge18@gmail.com. Also please note, we may not be able to use all pics and ideas that are sent in. We really appreciate your understanding. The first virtual event is coming up next Friday, October 30th for our Sunset Ridge Spirit Wear and PJ Day! Come to zoom in your new spirit wear or PJs and submit your pics! Also, if you have pictures from Unity Day that you would like to share, please submit those as well! Thank you, The Ridge https://tinyurl.com/y4lmkh2z

Our Veterans Day assembly is coming soon. We would like to recognize Veterans that are in our Sunset Ridge and View Ridge families. If you have a Veteran in your family and would like us to acknowledge them, please email a picture of that Veteran to Kayla.Mitchell@ridgefieldsd.org. In your email please include the Veteran’s name, title, military branch, years served, and which student they are related to. To ensure your picture is included in the assembly please email it by Monday, November 2nd. Our assembly is set to take place on Monday, November 9, 2020 from 2:20pm-2:50pm, with more details to follow. As a reminder, there will be no school on Wednesday, November 11, 2020, in honor of Veterans Day.

Unity Day Greetings Coyotes and families, The Sunset staff would like to share with you what kindness means to us on this Unity Day.

This week we had our first school-wide assembly. We celebrated Unity Day and introduced our new PBIS Ridge recognition tickets. Our student leaders ran the assembly and launched our Penny Wars fundraiser. The fundraiser will take place through November 2nd.

Mrs. Muir’s fifth grade class took a walking field trip today to say “thank you” to their Cispus counselors.

Fifth graders enjoyed their time at Cispus this week. Thank you to all of our teachers, volunteers, and RHS counselors for your time and care in providing wonderful experiences for our students!

October is National Bully Prevention Month, a nationwide campaign to educate and raise awareness of bullying prevention. This week, students were invited to make a pledge to non-bullying by writing their name on an orange ribbon and then tying their ribbon to a fence on campus.
