Jog-a-Thon 2012 Success
In spite of the lousy weather we had a great time at our first Jog-a-Thon while raising $1,474.50 to support our field trips and fun extras we do. Thank you to all who supported us with pledges, food and drink donations, and encouragement. Wet feet aside we have some kids who can really knock out the laps. Distance winners by grade were Fred and Luke in kindergarten, Austin, Erik and Landon in first/second, Mason in third/fourth, and Jada (ran 6 miles!) in fifth/sixth.

Barbara is pictured here presenting the mosaic to Director Christia Marasco. Barbara is also a volunteers arts elective teacher at Forest Ranch School and a member of the Founding Group that worked so hard to start the school.
New Seatbelt Law and Field TripsJanuary 1, 2012 brought a new challenge to FRCS in the form of a more restrictive booster seat law. The law states that children under 8 years old must be in a safety seat or booster in the back seat (VC 27360). It goes on to say that children 8 and over must be in a safety seat or booster if the seat belt does not fit properly (VC 27360.5). Proper fit is subjective and unless the child is at least 4' 9" the seat belt may not fit properly. This means that the new policy for FRCS, to ensure parent drivers are protected from unnecessary liability, is that any student not taller than 4" 9" must be in a booster seat in order to participate in a school-sponsored field trip.
