Welcome to Our Incoming Kindergarten Friends and Families!
We would like to welcome you to our Forest Ridge Elementary School ( FRES ) community! All of the teachers, principals, and staff are so excited to have you joining us in August. As a decision is still pending on how we will be attending class at the beginning of the 2020-21 school year and with the school buildings currently being closed, the Kindergarten teachers wanted to provide you with a fun, virtual way to meet us and introduce you to parts of our building through a
virtual tour! This
virtual tour will help you to become familiar with the media center, gym, cafeteria, an art room, and a Kindergarten classroom. This
link will take you to a Google presentation. (Please Note: If you do not have a
Google account, you may need to create one to view the presentation.) When viewing the slide about the Kindergarten teachers, select a teacher's name to watch a quick welcome video from each of us. Also, take a tour of FRES with our mascot, Eddie the Eagle, by selecting the stars on the map for different parts of the school to learn more about that area. Finally, at the end of the presentation is a fantastic guide to help you prepare for Kindergarten. Please take the time to view the guide and complete the activity at the end.
We hope you enjoy learning more about FRES! We are super excited for you to become a Forest Ridge Eagle and SOAR in Kindergarten!!
Have a safe, fun summer and we are looking forward to meeting you at the beginning of our new school year!
Warmly,
The Kindergarten Team
