Mobile Library On Campus 10/28
The Placer County Library will be bringing their mobile service to our campus on Monday 10/28. Students will have the opportunity to visit the library during the school day to check out materials. Students will need a library card in order to check out books. Please complete an application to receive a card (link here). Once you receive your card, you can leave the "keychain tab" card with your teacher so that your student can check out materials whenever the library is on campus! Halloween/Trick or Treating on 10/31 For those of you who are new to our school or need a refresher, here's how Halloween at Harvest Ridge goes! Students may wear their costumes to school. Please leave all weapon-like parts of their costumes at home and save the blood and gore for the nighttime activities (We still have younger students that can get scared by those things!). They can wear masks for our activities, but not in the classroom. Students still have PE, so they may want to bring a change of clothes for them to participate in. After announcements, we do a little circle parade in the back where the kids walk the playground's outer edges, see their friends, and have fun showing off their costumes. Usually around 10 we head into the town of Newcastle. Parents are welcome to join us and help walk us up to all Newcastle businesses as we trick or treat each one. We gather near the Cheese Shop and take a large group picture, then head back to campus. Please have them bring their trick-or-treat container or bag. Yearbook Photos Have any great pictures from this school year? Our Yearbook team would love to see them! Please share any photos that you have of classroom events, field trips, after school clubs, sports, or anything else school related to help provide content for the 2024/25 yearbook.

We will reopen/resume school on Tuesday 11/12. Birthday Messages on the Marquee Is it time to celebrate your student's birthday? Would you like to have a special message displayed for your child? Student council will be using this as a fundraiser for the events that we put on for HRCCS students. The cost is $10 for a message. Please use this Google Form to place a request! Venmo Payments Reminder Just a reminder that all payments being made for PTO sponsored school events need to include the Student's Name, Student's Grade, and the Event. Ex: Suzy Q, 5th Grade, Overnight Field Trip This helps ensure that the money going to the PTO Venmo is being applied to the right student for the right purpose. Thank you!

Harvest Ridge contracts with Newcastle Elementary School District to provide hot lunch for our students. Next week, NESD is on Fall Break, which means they don't have anyone staffed to provide lunches. Our PTO generously steps up in order to make sure that students that need a hot lunch will receive one. Please note - this takes a lot of time and financial resources for the PTO to be able to pull this off! We would highly encourage your student to bring their lunch to school next week if at all possible. For students that need to order hot lunch for next week, you may do so by completing the order form here. Lunch is still being provided at no cost to students/families. Please have this completed by Saturday at 9am so that our parent volunteers can prepare accordingly. If you are able to donate to the PTO to help them support providing hot lunch to our students, you may do so via Venmo @harvestridge. Thank you!
