We are excited to continue to support student success for the 2024-2025 school year!   

As you know, We are Rams because we are Respectful, Achievers, Motivated, and we have Self-Control. We expect students to show this in all that they do each day. These four things are the keys to their success here at school. All staff are a part of encouraging students to unlock their power to success by believing that students can do anything that they put their minds to doing. 

As always, the Ratcliffe staff will work together to plan and deliver quality instruction that meets the diverse needs of our students. We will ensure a safe and nurturing learning environment that promotes academic achievement and character development. Our focus will continue to be on increasing students’ love for reading, understanding basic math facts, problem-solving abilities, and collaboration with their peers. 

Parents, with your support our school will continue to grow and our students will have continued gains in their academic success. Monthly you will receive a Principal’s Newsletter that will highlight important ways you can support your child and their educational progress. In addition, you will receive monthly communication from your child’s teacher that will highlight important dates and information. 

Frequent communication between school and home is very important and can transform your child’s love for learning. Please be sure to notify your child’s teacher of the best way they can communicate with you.

Again, I look forward to this upcoming school year and I hope it will be a great year. I am so very proud to be a RAM!

Mrs. Joy Reed, Principal
