Parents can visit Mrs. Laura Stephens in the Front Office in the Sage Ridge School Webster Building with these items or scan and email them as a PDF to Mrs. Stephens.

Due Online on Compass:

Once you log in to your Compass account, if you have forms due and a checklist to review, a yellow bar will appear at the top of the webpage on your parent screen. Click on the checklist to open your student’s checklist. Each parent and guardian associated with the child’s account must sign the following:

Family Handbook
Acceptable Use Policy Acknowledgment
Medical Form
Emergency Contacts

Please review each section in the checklist and type your name to sign each form. Make sure to hit “submit” after signing each form. Once you submit a form, a confirmation of the form’s submission will appear and Compass will ask you if you’d like to fill out the next form in the checklist. Sage Ridge recommends signing all of the documents in one sitting to ensure items are completed before the start of the school year. Please note that under your student's "files and forms" a button will say "Continue" for forms that do not have signatures from all parents and guardians until all signatures have been collected. You will receive communications from Compass (Blackbaud) prompting you to finish the forms until each parent and guardian listed in your contact card with parental access has logged in with their own credentials and signed the forms.

Make sure each checklist section is completed by clicking “Checklist(s) to Review” and each form by clicking on the “Form(s) to Review” in the yellow bar. Checklists and forms need to be completed for each child at Sage Ridge School.

The varsity letter award is presented to athletes at the varsity level who have reached athletic criteria that has been set forth by Sage Ridge School. Athletes must meet the earned time criteria that is set forth for each varsity sport. Those who earn a varsity letter are awarded with a certificate and a varsity letter (first year only). Each year after that, a player lettering receives a certificate.
