About our Digital Backpack
Welcome to the FLAS Digital Backpack, the district’s central posting place for community flyers.
Forest Lake Area Schools collaborates with non-profit youth-serving organizations within the district to share their program opportunities with students by linking their information to this site. Events must take place within the district and all materials to be posted will be pre-approved. Requests will be sent to the email listed below and information will be posted throughout the school year. Requests will be reviewed according to district guidelines and the decision to post is at the discretion of the District. Information from organizations offering a program in direct conflict with a District activity will not be posted. Forest Lake Area Schools neither endorses nor sponsors the organizations or activities represented here. The Digital Backpack is provided as a community service.
