Subject: Welcome Back, Ponderosa Families! 🐴❤️💙

Dear Ponderosa Parents and Guardians,

Welcome back to the 2026–2027 school year! We hope you and your family have had a wonderful, restful summer. We are excited to begin another incredible year of learning, growth, and success at Ponderosa Elementary, where we will continue to ACE the Year Together!

Please find attached the following important documents:

• 2026–2027 Ponderosa Elementary ACE School Calendar

Please note: As an ACE campus, Ponderosa Elementary follows its own school calendar, which is different from the standard Spring ISD calendar. We encourage all families to review the attached ACE calendar carefully and save it for reference throughout the school year to ensure you are aware of all important school dates, holidays, and student attendance days.

We are looking forward to welcoming our students back and partnering with you to make this an outstanding school year. Thank you for your continued support and commitment to our school community.

Together, let's make the 2026–2027 school year our best one yet!

ACE the Year Together!

Sincerely,

Dr. Shawn Nickerson

Ponderosa ES, Principal

Ponderosa Elementary School
