Falcon Ridge Families,
As we head into Thanksgiving break and the holiday season, I am truly thankful for the students and families we get to work with on a daily basis. Your continued partnership with us at Falcon Ridge is appreciated!
With colder weather here to stay, please remember that coats are required for recess. Hats and mittens are needed when the temperature drops below 40 degrees, and snow pants and boots are required to play off the blacktop when snow is on the ground.
When reporting your child's absence or if you need to pick them up early, please call our attendance line at 952-758-1605. If you email their classroom teacher, be sure to also include all three of our Front Office staff: Nurse Jan ([email protected]), Colleen Osborne ([email protected]), and Heather Tupy ([email protected]).
Lastly, a limited number of 2023-24 yearbooks are still available for purchase in the front office for $16 (cash only).
Sincerely,
Mr. Dave Giesen
Falcon Ridge Elementary Principal
(952) 758-1601

BizTown 5th Grade Field Trip
BizTown is a unique experience for the 5th graders. They learn about financial literacy, economy and community, career readiness, and business management. After spending a few months learning all they need, they get to practice running a town for the day! Our 5th graders truly enjoyed this engaging field trip! We would like to thank the many parent volunteers who traveled to BizTown with us for the day, along with the donations from MVEC Round Up Grant and New Prague Education Foundation.

Intro to Education Class
We are excited to partner with NPHS, and the Intro to Education course, which allows students at the high school to observe and work with students in our classrooms. These are students considering pursuing a career in the field of education, and are also some of our Falcon Ridge students’ favorite people! This partnership has developed into a ‘win-win’ for everyone involved.

Everyday Fundraising for Falcon Ridge
In working with our Falcon Ridge PAC, I want to make all of our families aware of some easy ways to support our students at Falcon Ridge by using a few simple steps with businesses that you may already be spending money with:
- Shutterfly - Simply click on this Shutterfly link and start shopping. A percentage will go directly to our Falcon Ridge PAC.
- Coborn's School Rewards - Coborn's, Inc. is committed to donating $150,000 to local entities during the 2019-2020 school year. The points your school earns will help grow their share of the $150,000 total. It's like a pie; the size of your school's slice will depend on how many points they have received. Schools should encourage their supporters to register for their location at moreRewards.com: 1. Go to moreRewards.com, 2. create a login, 3. proceed to login, 4. go to "manage my membership," 5. choose school rewards, 6. select Falcon Ridge, and you are done! It is just that easy! You can also easily add it through the More Rewards phone app: 1. go to rewards, 2. slide the school rewards button to green, 3. below the button there should be an option for you to change to your school, 4. search for Falcon Ridge, and 5. select Falcon Ridge.
