Principal's Message - 10/21/18

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.

End of the First Quarter - No School Tomorrow

I would like to begin this evening by reminding everyone that there will be no school tomorrow, Monday, October 22. We have reached the halfway point of the fall semester. Parents, please feel free to contact your child’s teacher if you have any questions about their academic progress so far this year. You may call the school directly or email any of our faculty members by using the staff directory on our web site.

Cross Country Congratulations

I would like to wish congratulations to our men’s and women’s cross country teams for their successful seasons. Both teams finished fourth at the conference meet last week. Nate Warden, Yamel Cortez, & Andi Synder were named All-Conference, and Samuel Odom was named All-Conference Honorable Mention.

Fall Chorus Concert

I would like to invite everyone to join us for our Fall Chorus Concert, scheduled for this Tuesday, October 23. This event will begin at 7pm and will take place in our auditorium. We hope to see you there!

Security Monitoring Station

I would like to thank everyone for their cooperation so far this year with our new security monitoring station at the front entrance of our school. As a reminder, please be sure to stop at the station anytime you enter or exit the school so that our security monitor can assist you. Thank you for helping us ensure the safety and security of our students and staff.

The Forbush JROTC is sponsoring “Coins for the Coast,” a fundraiser to benefit the Red Cross and supporting the hurricane relief efforts along the North Carolina coast.
