Good evening, this is Mr. Kennedy, principal of Forbush High School. I hope everyone had a great weekend. I have a few announcements and updates I would like to share with you this evening.
I want to begin this evening by reminding everyone that this Tuesday, November 1, will be “Marshall Baker Day.” Please wear your t-shirts! If you would like to purchase a t-shirt, see Señora Helton in 703H. Also, stop by the Forbush News Team table during lunch in the lobby of A building to send a personal recorded message to Marshall. We are hosting a Powder Puff football game on Tuesday night, beginning at 7pm. Admission is $3 and all proceeds will donated to Marshall Baker and his family.
Congratulations to the volleyball team on a successful season. The Falcons finished with a 17-8 record this year, finishing second in the conference and making it to the second round of the state playoffs. Congratulations also goes out to our men’s soccer team, who finished the regular season undefeated. The playoff brackets have not yet been released but the Falcons will play their first match at home this week.
