News and Tidbits

Hello Families,

Happy first day of school! I would like to personally welcome you to Falcon Ridge Charter School! We are delighted you have selected Falcon Ridge as your school of choice.

What sets Falcon Ridge Charter School apart from other educational settings? Our focus on academics and character. This year's theme is Character of Champions, and each month we will focus on a different character trait.

Stay up-to-date each week by reading the Falcon Ridge Family Updates. This is our primary method of communication with our families. Each week, we will highlight celebrations, events, news, PTO updates, and other important information.

New to Falcon Ridge? There are many ways to learn about the school and get involved in your child's education. Be sure to check out the Student Handbook for details.

The Student Handbook outlines important information concerning attendance, dress code, and electronic devices. Please note that attendance matters. As we return to "normal", the Falcon Ridge attendance policy will be reinforced. State funding is tied to our student attendance.

Just a quick reminder that Mondays are early release (1:30 pm).

Wishing you a wonderful school year!

Sincerely,

Dr. Jorgensen

Attendance is Critical!

Students who accrue five (5) or more full-day unexcused absences or nine (9) full-day excused and unexcused combined absences in a semester may lose their seat. After the eighth (8th) full-day absence, the student and parent/guardian will be required to meet before the school board. After the ninth (9th) full-day absence in one semester, a note from parents is not sufficient.
