Our district has seen quite a few SPAM email messages filter through in recent weeks. The latest one was sent out to our parents as well. If you have received a message from Mark Ranstrom, either from his personal account or school account, with the subject: ITEMS FOR SALE; please do not respond, click on any link, or send money! Mark it as SPAM and delete it afterward.

Please be wary of messages such as these. If you know the sender personally, call or text to ask questions! This will protect yourself and your information. If it seems strange or “too good to be true”, it probably is.
