Join us for Registration Day as we kick off the 2026/2027 school year!
All FRCS families are invited to join us for Registration Day on Thursday, August 13. You can meet teachers, set up your locker or your student desk, drop off supplies, turn in essential forms, and (perhaps most importantly) reconnect with the community while enjoying snow cones and lawn games! There is a dedicated time at 9am for new families to join us and receive a welcome and introduction to campus, and we are running special sessions on various topics throughout the day. These sessions allow parents to hear from various leaders at FRCS about a number of topics—so take a look at the schedule below and join us on August 13 for the beginning of another excellent school year!
As you arrive, please follow the Registration Day Checklist (downloadable version coming soon). This checklist, which can be completed in any order, will ensure that you get the most out of this day and don’t miss any critical stations. Your general school supplies should be dropped off in the classroom when you meet your teacher (ECE & Elementary) or at the table near the Jr/Sr High front office.

Things you can do now
Update your student’s info
Information for emergency cards is taken from the data you supply in the Family Portal. Before August 10, please take a few minutes to review your family’s information and make any necessary changes. Having accurate information is critical to school safety, so please update your info today. Instructions are listed below.
- Go to the Family Portal and log in
- From the School menu, select Web Forms.
- Then select FRCS Family Forms. You will see several forms listed where various information can be viewed or updated. Be sure to save each form you update.

- Emergency Contact Form: list of emergency contacts
- Authorized Pick Up Form: list of those who are authorized to pick your student up from school
- Senior High Specific Forms

- ThriveCare permission form — must be completed for each high school student in your family, but only needs to be completed once for each student (i.e., if you completed the form last year, you do not need to complete it again this year)
Gather required medical forms and unopened medications
We cannot administer any medication without the Over the Counter Medication or Prescription Medication forms being filled out by your doctor. Use the button below to access forms and print the ones you need (or download the medication forms from the Family Portal), ask your doctor to fill them out, and bring them to Registration Day with your unopened medications.
If your child requires rescue medication of any kind (seizure meds, EpiPen, inhalers, insulin/glucagon) he/she will not be allowed to start school without the required paperwork and medication. Use the button below to access the forms and other medication information.
If your student will have a medical or non-medical exemption from required vaccinations, please use the button below for information on what is required. Note that exemptions must be completed each year.

Buy school supplies to bring to Registration Day
Determine and review school fees
Elementary fees cover field trips, year-end celebrations, instruments (specific grades only), outdoor experience (6th grade only), and a school t-shirt. If your 6th grade student wishes to play any middle school sports, those fees are in addition to regular fees. Elementary families will be invoiced for fees on August 5, and auto-drafted on August 19.
Jr/Sr High students have required fees that cover things like retreats, community days, standardized testing, yearbooks, a school t-shirt, and more. The Junior High required fee is $390 and the Senior High required fee is $435. Jr/Sr High families will be invoiced for fees on July 13, and auto-drafted on August 10. Fees that apply to classes your student is taking (AP Courses, NHS, and electives) are invoiced after the add-drop period. Fees that pertain to sports and theater productions are invoiced at the beginning of those seasons.
Fees are invoiced through your existing FACTS account and automatically paid using the payment method on record in FACTS (though you can choose to make payments manually prior to the due date). If you prefer to pay from a different bank or account or by credit/debit card, please log in to your FACTS account prior to the due date and add the other form of payment. NOTE: If you elect to pay by credit/debit card, associated processing fees will be added to the invoice total.
Please refer to fee sheets (found on the Family Portal) for specific details about fees.
