Principal
- Chromebook checkout for students continues today. We will be set up at the District office, and operating 1-4. If those times do not work for your family, please contact your building principal to help coordinate.
- Meals DO START TODAY. Meals are served out of the High School Cafeteria (North lot). You do not need to get out of your car, just circle the parking lot loop in a counterclockwise direction, stop at the cafeteria, and you will be helped. Meals are free for all students 0-18. All you have to do is provide your last name.
- Limited In-Person Instruction students (grades 4-8) that were scheduled to attend today from 9 AM-11AM IS CONTINUING! The OPTIONS program activities still begin today, and 4th-12th grade students that were to begin CDL today are STILL doing so!
- The rise in COVID cases in Lane County (released late yesterday), combined with the fact that we had not yet started in-person instruction, prevented us from starting school today and the staff is crushed at these turn of events! We are already working on a plan to get our K-3 students in school this week! We will share information during a 5:30 ZOOM parent meeting tonight. We need some time to confirm our plan follows ODE guidelines, and can work with our facilities, food service and transportation If you cannot make that meeting, we will post all of the information immediately following. Stay Tuned! The login information for the meeting is below.
Gary Carpenter is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Elementary Supply Fee
For the 2022-2023 school year, the FRSD elementary schools will again be instituting an elementary school supply fee of $30 per student. The fee will encompass all in-person school supplies needed for students. The supply fee eliminates the need for parents to shop for supplies and ensures that classrooms have all supplies ready to go on the first day of school.
Scholarships are available for families that have financial hardship.
