Today is School Custodian Appreciation Day!
Thanks to Mr. Mike and Mr. Joe, who keep our school so clean and looking great! We appreciate your hard work.
Wow – our community really stepped up! PTA collected over 100 bags of cans and bottles yesterday!
PTA does so many amazing things to help support our students and teachers. Community contributions make a big difference in opportunities for kids. Thank you so much for your support!
We’ve finished the first two weeks of school (first week for kindergarten) and are off to a great start!
Thank you to our families and the community for your support in getting this year up and running. Staff have worked hard to prepare, and students are excited to be in class and learning!
In lieu of selecting just one employee for the month of August, we would like to thank ALL of our FRSD Summer Program! In just 4 short weeks, connections were made, fun was had, and learning continued for over 200 FRSD students! 
As we prepare to open our doors for the 22-23 school year, there are some important details we would like to share with families in regards to our food services plan for this year. Please see below for more information:
- The free meal program offered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture as part of its response to the coronavirus pandemic has ended.
- FRSD 22-23 Breakfast/Lunch pricing information can be found on our website
- You may qualify for free or reduced meals and can apply online https://www.ode.state.or.us/apps/frlapp
- The district is happy to announce that we will be able to continue with FREE BREAKFAST K-12 for the 22-23 school year for ALL STUDENTS. We will be using a portion of our ESSER III $ to fund this for the upcoming year.
- Please do not let the free breakfast component deter families from filling out the free/reduced meal application, as this is still very important!
It is time to start thinking about school registration!
Families will be able to register online or come into the school during registration dates. The link to online registration can be found on the right hand menu on the EES website.

Based on a request from building staff, the FRSD school board has altered the District calendar for the last week of school.
On the final week of school only – EARLY RELEASE day will be moved from Wednesday, June 15th to Friday, June 17th.
Wednesday, June 15th will be a full-school day.
This will be the only week that the early release day will change. If you have any questions, please reach out to your student’s school office.
