22-23 New Student Resources
Forest Ridge awaits your arrival with great anticipation! You are joining an exceptional community, and we are thrilled to have you as part of the Forest Ridge family. Here you will find the school calendar, personnel directory, back-to-school forms, summer reading, school supplies, and information about summer program, athletics, laptops, and uniforms.
Welcome to Forest Ridge!
Summer Reading & Assignments
Summer reading and assignments are designated by grade level and are required for all students. As research has shown, the most effective time a student can spend in the summer to maintain her learning is to read daily – even if it’s for just 15-20 minutes.
10th Grade Summer Reading
