Principal's Message - 4/1/18

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.

Spring Break
As a reminder to students and parents, Spring Break has begun and there will be no school for students this week. Students return to class on Monday, April 9.

Student Accomplishments
Congratulations to the Falcon Battalion JROTC for winning the East Rowan Drill Meet last weekend. Our Falcons finished first in the Platoon Armed, Squad Armed, and Squad Unarmed. The Battalion also finished second in the Color Guard and Platoon Unarmed. Individual accolades included a first place finish for Travis Johnson and a second place finish for Brendan Brittain and Mikey Akers.

Congratulations to HOSA for their achievements at the State Conference last week. Our chapter received recognition as a Gold Star Chapter, Gold Star Adviser, and was also recognized for their work with the American Red Cross. Numerous students won individual awards, with some of our top accomplishments achieved by Sierra Burton, Summer Burton, Kailey Smitherman, Sophia Haynes, and Laura Wyrick.

Congratulations to Haley Flippin, our newly elected regional FFA Officer for the Northwest Region.

We will be selling concessions, including candy, popcorn, drinks, Dominos pizza, Bojangles sandwiches, and Arby’s sandwiches. The game begins at 7:30 and gates open at 6:00.
