Good Afternoon,

Upon return from break, a committee consisting of parents and staff members will begin meeting  to identify what we want our middle school experience to look like next school year and beyond. For this, we're seeking parent volunteers. Please see the attached letter for details.

Dear Rangers,

I am writing to make you aware of a vague and troubling threat to school safety that is being shared widely on the social media platform TikTok. The post, which originated outside our area and has been circulating at other schools, refers to a threat of violence at “every school in the USA” on Friday, December 17.  While we don’t want to cause undue alarm, we also want to be transparent and notify you that this online post has gone viral across the nation.  

Our school district has not received any local or direct threats. We are connected with local law enforcement and they are not aware of any threats to our schools. We are informing you of this online rumor out of an abundance of caution and because we take any threat to student or staff safety very seriously.  

Even if threats posted online are not deemed credible threats, they can cause a great deal of stress and anxiety for students, families, and staff.

This issue is a reminder of the importance of communicating with your student about social media. Please take a moment to talk with your student about what they can do to be safe, kind, and responsible online.

• If you or your student have any concerns about safety, share them immediately with your school administrator or office and law enforcement.

• Social media draws tremendous attention from impressionable young people. Your guidance is essential to ensure your student is safe, kind, and responsible online, especially outside of school hours when they are most likely to be on social media.

• Discuss and explain your expectations for online behaviors. 

• Connect with resources. Please reach out if your student needs support.

Please let me know if you have questions. Thank you for your continued partnership to keep our students safe.

Proud to be  Ranger,

Frank Redmon

Superintendent

We would like to officially welcome new school board member Jon Cooke who was sworn in at last night's regular board meeting. Also sworn in for another term was incumbent Paul Mahan.

We also said good bye to outgoing board member Cindy Pollard who was presented with an award for her service. We will miss you Cindy! Thank you for all you have done for our district over the years.

Good Afternoon,

First off, I want to say a huge thank you to Carrie Thompson, Jami Sukert, Tammy Thompson, Siehara Wong, and the rest of the volunteers who made our first annual Winter Workshop a truly special event!

Next, due to a scheduling conflict, we will not be having a virtual open house this upcoming Monday; however, we'll create a video to update everyone on current happenings later in the week.

Lastly, Ms. Eliason and Mrs. Hildebrandt are putting the final touches on Quilcene's Nutcracker Musical. The release will take place next Thursday evening.

Thank you and GO RANGERS!

Mr. Moss

Each week we'll be updating our COVID-19 tracker. The most recent tracker is attached to this message.
