News and Notes
The Season is here! Scrimmages! Bus Rides! Games! It's a roller coaster and it really is like going to an Amusement Park. Seems like you wait in line forever, for the ride to be over in flash. So embrace the day. Make the most of each and every opportunity. Take it all in, because each day has the potential to be special, and each day can truly be whatever you want it to be.
Weekly Recap
Last week we kicked off our FanAngel Fundraiser, started hanging our team banners, and finished off the week with our Annual Blue Santa Scrimmage versus Cedar Park.
Please continue to add emails and phone numbers to your FanAngel profiles if you can, as all donations help us reach our goal. Also please share the above QR code with friends, family, co-workers, and businesses as way to help contribute.
Team Banners are being hung. JV banners were shipped at the same time as Varsity banners but the tracking # still shows in Transit. So hopefully those will be here on Monday, and we can hang them on Tuesday. They look really good and I'm excited to get them up.
And our Blue Santa Scrimmage was a huge success. It was so exciting getting to put the uniforms on and to get the season started. Between Cedar Park and Vista Ridge we collected over 210 new toys for the Cedar Park Police Department. That was Amazing and so glad to be a part of this community event.

Final Thoughts
Just a Reminder that this is the Final Week of the 6 weeks. It was only a 5 week grading cycle. Vista Ridge does not have semester finals, and this week the focus is on Continuous Improvement and finishing the six weeks strong. As a reminder, if you were to fail for the 6 weeks you would miss 9 Varsity games or 11 JV games which is almost 1/2 the season before you can regain your eligibility. Remember that your are Students first and athletes second. Make sure to take care of all assignments and leave nothing to chance.
Let's have a great week and Go Lady Rangers!
