The Early Childhood Programs are an integral part of Forest Lake Area Schools (FLAS). We work together to assure that children transition smoothly into kindergarten.
The program offers before and after school childcare, non-school days (NSD) and summer childcare. Fees are listed in the current fee schedule online. The program opens at 6am and closes at 6pm.
Waltz & Rumba are popular ballroom dances and are often played at weddings. Although the musical style and character of these dances differ from each other, they have many patterns and moves in common making it quite easy to transfer your skills from one dance to the other.
