Grandparents Day
FRCS Grandparents are invited to a special day exclusively for grandparents of FRCS students grades 1-6 and a select group of junior high and senior high students. Our goal is to celebrate the special relationship you have with your grandchild(ren) in an event just for you. Check out all the details below. There is no registration necessary for this event.

An Important Message for Parents
As FRCS continues to grow, so do the number of individuals in attendance at events like this one. Due to capacity and fire code restrictions, it will be challenging to accommodate all grandparents AND parents in our Performing Arts Center and classrooms. In order to ensure there is seating for ALL of our grandparent guests, grandparents are given priority for seating in the Performing Arts Center. Please be willing to make room for other grandparents in the PAC as it fills. Parents who are unable to sit in the PAC are invited to watch the livestream in the Commons. Parents who wish to participate may also consider signing up to be a volunteer for the event
