Dear Falcon Families,
The week before spring break was busy for our students including a group of students that attended the 3rd annual Finding My Passion Event. It was a club fair at Marshall Middle School for all of their students to explore some of our clubs and programs that are available at Scripps Ranch High. Check out some great photos from the event: photo 1, photo 2, photo 3, photo 4. It is always amazing to watch our students take on leadership roles and work with the middle school students. I hope this week off for Spring break provides our students and families an opportunity to have some fun and quality time together. When we return it will be a fast two months until the end of the school year.
This update will cover the week of April 8th. My next update will be sent on Sunday, April 14th. See below for the latest updates as of 3-24-24 covering CAASPP testing, dances, senior activities, graduation, and more.
* Please forward this message to your child’s email account so they have all the latest info.

Senior Attendance Recovery Plans
Seniors with any truancy codes (AZTWs) are currently ineligible for prom and the graduation ceremony. Last week they had the opportunity to meet with their associate principal to clarify their ineligibility and develop a plan for recovery. If your student was unable to meet with their associate principal and is looking for support developing a plan they can contact them, speak with Ms. Lovato, or refer to the Academic Support & Attendance Recovery Opportunities.
Facts for Parents in the PowerSchool Parent Portal - Reminder
Starting Monday, March 11th, a new form will be added to the PowerSchool Parent Portal. It's called the 2023-24 Facts for Parents. This form will ask you to confirm that you have received the Facts for Parents booklet, which contains important updated information for families in San Diego Unified. The booklet covers your rights and responsibilities, along with district, local, state, and federal policies affecting all students. Each year, schools must provide this booklet to every parent/guardian. In the Parent Portal, you'll find the form available in English, Spanish, Somali, Tagalog, and Vietnamese. It includes a link to the Facts for Parents booklet on the district website. Please login to the PowerSchool Parent Portal and submit the 2023-24 Facts for Parents form. Throughout the school year, schools will remind any parents/guardians who haven't completed the form yet. Please contact the Scripps Ranch Site tech at [email protected] if you do not have an access ID. If you need to set up your portal account please use this link. https://itd.sandiegounified.org/it_resources/power_school/power_school_parent_student_portal

Before & After School Tutoring - Reminder
After school tutoring will continue this week for students needing help in different subjects. Students can show up to the classrooms listed each day to get support in their subject. Students do not need to sign up. All students are welcome. Please see the Before & After School Tutoring Schedule as not all subjects are available each day. Before & After School Tutoring and Peer Tutoring also counts toward attendance recovery.
That’s all for today. Enjoy your Spring break!
Sincerely,
Matt Lawson, Ed.D
