Good evening, this is Mr. Kennedy, principal of Forbush High School. I have a few announcements and updates I would like to share with you this evening.

No School Tomorrow

I want to begin this evening by reminding everyone that there will be no school tomorrow (Monday, February 27). All students will return to school on Tuesday, February 28.

School Counseling Department

Seniors, if you are planning to go to college and need help paying for it, complete the FAFSA as soon as possible! If you need help with the FAFSA, contact Mrs. Pennix to get free help on March 6. Seniors, please check your email for more information about the March 6 Financial Aid assistance and contact information for Mrs. Pennix. You can also explore Ms. Mitze’s web site, which includes a wealth of information about scholarships and financial aid.
