At NB Ranch, we will be celebrating SNV from March 16 - March 27. Starting on March 23, our school will also be proudly participating in The Great Kindness Challenge (GKC). The GKC is a week-long program dedicated to creating a culture of kindness and compassion. Each student will receive a GKC checklist and will be encouraged to complete as many acts of kindness as possible at school by the end of the week. The hope is that they feel inspired to continue them at home and in their community as well! Please take a look at the schedule of events below for this year's SNV.

What an Incredible McTeacher’s Night!
A huge THANK YOU to all the staff and families who joined us for our McTeacher’s Night at McDonald's this week! We had a packed house for all three hours, and the energy was absolutely amazing!
Our students loved seeing their teachers delivering food to their tables and getting to interact with them outside of the classroom. It was such a fun way to connect as a school community, and the smiles said it all!
Thanks to your support, we raised over $1,200, our biggest fundraiser of the year so far! You all truly rock, and we are so grateful for the way our families show up for our school.
Let’s keep this wonderful momentum going as we head into our Jog-A-Thon next!
Our Lost & Found is growing quickly! Please stop by the front of the school to check for and claim your student’s items as soon as possible.
All unclaimed items will be donated on March 6th, so be sure to take a look before then.
To help us return items more easily, please remember to label your student’s sweaters, jackets, water bottles, and lunch boxes with their name.
Thank you for your support in keeping our Broncos organized!

Our furry visitors came from Love On A Leash®, a nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing comfort, joy, and stress relief through certified pet therapy teams. Each therapy pet is specially trained and certified with its owner to provide calm, caring interactions in a variety of settings.
It’s important to note that therapy pets are different from service dogs and emotional support animals. Their role is to offer comfort and emotional support through positive, supervised interactions—and they did just that for our students!
Thank you to Love On A Leash® and your amazing volunteers for sharing your time (and wagging tails!) with our Broncos. This was truly a paws-itively unforgettable experience!
