Principal Notes

Greetings Forest Families!

Thank-you to all the families that attended our Summer Kick-off Family Night last night!!  It was great to see so many people join us to get resources and activities for the summer.  Our last family night the Forest School Carnival on Friday, May 17th from 4-6pm.  

Our 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students did a great job completing the MCA reading assessment this week! Next week students will take the MCA math assessment on Tuesday and Wednesday.  Make sure to get a good night of sleep and come ready to do your best!

Do you have a student or neighbor that will be entering kindergarten next year? Forest is hosting our Kindergarten Information Night for parents and in-coming students on Thursday, May 9th from 5-6:00.

Finally, a reminder that there is no school on Friday, April 26th due to a staff development day.  

Thanks for your support and partnership and have a great weekend!

Mrs. Jackson, Principal

With a camp-like feel, the Summer Academic Program for elementary and middle school students features small class sizes and no tests or worksheets. This opportunity will spark your student's curiosity, while also allowing them to play games, get outside, and hang with friends.
