The field is prepared for tomorrow night’s 2024 Panther Homecoming Football Game! Junior Mathew Morgan took drone pictures of the field. Matthew, along with nine other high school students, learned to fly drones at a camp sponsored by the high school at CSU in Fort Collins. As part of a grant, the school district now has two drones. Thank you, Jeremy Lohry, Erin LeBleu, Lexi LeBleu, and Kaitlyn Cox, for painting the R on midfield.


On Saturday, September 21, the Meeker Softball Team hosts Cedaridge for a doubleheader with games at 11:00 a.m. And 1:00 p.m. at Paintbrush Park in Meeker. Join Rangely Seniors Ashlynn Ducey, Jade Miller, Miah Wren, and Miley Chism for Senior Day.









Leave the cooking up to someone else tonight. Join the sophomores TONIGHT, Thursday, September 19, at 5:00 PM at the Rec center for dinner. After dinner, walk across the parking lot for the homecoming pep rally and bonfire.

On Wednesday, third grader Kinzlie dressed like a librarian for Dress Like a Grown-up Day. When her class went to the library, she took her role seriously and read "The Pigeon Has to Go to School" to her class.
After the story, students colored their pigeons to represent Panther Homecoming.



Last week, the seventh-grade health lifestyles class enjoyed the fresh air and beautiful scenery while going on a hike.

Great job, Panthers! Athletic schedules for the upcoming week are available on our website or school district app.

During science last week, the preschoolers had fun learning about the energy in their bodies and seeing how it can be transferred from their hands to an energy stick that lights up. They all loved it!

On September 11, Rangely Junior/Senior High School was placed on a short hold shortly after school began. This is part of the standard response protocol we use as part of the "I love you guys.” In this situation, we had an emergency medical situation that seemed most appropriate for students to stay in their classrooms while emergency personnel transported a school employee to a vehicle for further treatment. At no time was anyone at risk. However, we did our best to protect the kids.

Meet Roary! The new Rangely Panther Mascot.
Rangely School District would like to thank the Rangely Panther Pride Booster Club for purchasing Roary. We appreciate all you do for our athletic programs.


In the second week of August, high school band students participated in a band camp hosted by Rangely Junior/Senior High Band Teacher Mr. Solis.
Shout-out to clarinet player Freshman Faith Prieto for not missing one day.
“Faith was always on time and ready to work. Her clarinet and marching skills skyrocketed in the few days of camp. Her happy and go-to attitude will make her a pivotal member of our ensemble this coming year.” -Mr. Solis
Words from Faith
Fun Fact: I like the color green and hope to improve my high notes (on clarinet).
“Camp has helped teach me something valuable: marching and playing fundamentals for the year. It is fun to play an instrument!
Great Job Faith!

On Thursday, Mr. Forbes’ fourth-grade students visited Ms. Hernandez’s first-grade class and read books to the younger students.
