Thank you all of the generous parents who donated treats for our students and for our PAC parents who passed them out on Thursday. Gratitude bags filled with treats were passed to each student on their way in to school on Thursday thanking them for all of their hard work so far this year.

I am so grateful to be the principal of Rancho Pico. I am grateful for the wonderful certificated and classified staff who work hard to serve our students, the supportive families, and for our amazing students. I hope all of our staff and Rancho Pico families have a wonderful, healthy, safe Thanksgiving break!

With Gratitude,

Catherine Nicholas, Ed.D.
