Good evening, this is Mr. Kennedy, principal of Forbush High School.
I want to begin this evening by thanking everyone who helped make our Homecoming football game last Thursday night a great success. It was a beautiful night for football and the Homecoming court, members of the band, the JROTC, and the fans did a great job. Congratulations to the team and coaches on another hard-fought victory.
