Hello Forge Parents,
We hope you are enjoying your summer and making memories with your family and friends! We are excited to kick off the school year with our first annual Forge Christian High School Culture-Building Retreat for grades 10-12 on August 15-16.
Below is information about the retreat and forms that must be completed for each student. We believe in building culture so we are making this retreat a mandatory event for all traditionally-enrolled students; retreat days are counted as school days and will be included in the attendance policy.
There is no additional cost associated with this retreat for traditionally-enrolled students, as it is included in your student fees. However, if you are a homeschool or hybrid/online student there will be an additional cost for this retreat.
If you have any questions, please email colleenmartchenke@forgechs.com.

Crooked Creek Ranch in Fraser, Colorado
