Can you believe we’ve already been in school for a full month? Time is flying by, which means our first progress report is right around the corner. Progress 1 ends this coming Friday. If your student currently has a D or F, a physical report card will be sent home with them. In the meantime, we strongly encourage you to check Infinite Campus regularly so you always know where your student stands.
On another note, our athletics programs are in full swing! Cross Country had a stellar performance at their meet in Big Bear last week, with the majority of our runners placing in the top 20 out of more than 50 athletes.
Thank you for your continued partnership as we work together to support our students' academic and athletic growth. Have a wonderful week!
Hello, Rattler Families! 🐍
Beginning Tuesday, September 1, 2026, all eligible students must present a valid 2026/2027 bus pass (permanent or temporary) in order to ride school transportation.

⚠️ Please note: Temporary passes will not be issued after school.
Students who do not have a 2026/2027 permanent or temporary bus pass will not be permitted to ride the bus home.
