Principal's Message - 11/4/18

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.

Congratulations to Mr. Hauser
I want to begin this evening by congratulating Forbush staff member Chris Hauser. Mr. Hauser was recently recognized as Philanthropist of the Year by the Yadkin Community Foundation thanks to his dedication to the greater Forbush community. As many of you know, Mr. Hauser is a local pastor who also volunteers countless hours at Forbush High School and across Yadkin County. Congratulations to Mr. Hauser on this much-deserved honor!

Congratulations Forbush Volleyball
Congratulations to our Forbush volleyball team on an outstanding season. Our Falcons won their first conference regular season and tournament title since 2006, going undefeated in conference play and making it to the third round of the state playoffs. Congratulations Forbush volleyball on an awesome season!

Congratulations Forbush Chorus
Forbush High School recently had six Chorus students selected to participate in the Mars Hill Choral Festival. Congratulations to Chasten Coleman, Tori Hicks, Brady Miller, Hannah Pettitt, Haley Reinhardt, and Nikita Sizemore, and best of luck at the Mars Hill Choral Festival!

Students of the Month
The Forbush staff recently recognized four students for their hard work, positive attitude, and remarkable character. These students were selected as our “Students of the Month.” Congratulations to the following students: Christian Furno, Emily Whitaker, Hailey Buelin, and Ronnie Hampton.

Seniors - Cap & Gown / Class Ring Orders
Seniors, Jostens will be on campus this Thursday, November 8 to take orders for class rings and to take cap and gown pictures and orders. Our Jostens representative will be available during all lunches in the A-Building lobby.

Bush Band Updates
The Forbush Band Boosters’ Dewey’s Pre-Sale has begun! Please see any band student, parent, or Mrs. Peterson to pre-order your Dewey’s Bakery goodies. Also, the Bush Band Dewey’s Holiday store at Collide Church in Yadkinville will open on Saturday, November 17 at noon. The store will be open Monday through Friday, 4-7pm, and Saturdays from noon to 7pm until December 23.

ASVAB
Anyone interested in taking the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Test, also known as the ASVAB, can sign up with LTC Brooks or MSG Hayes in room 130A. The test will be administered at FHS on November 13. Taking the test is NOT committing to military service but is a requirement for those who are considering one of the Armed Services.

That is all for this evening. As always, if you ever have any questions or concerns, please feel free to call or email me anytime. Also, please be sure to check out our web site and follow us on Twitter and Facebook for daily updates. Thank you for your time this evening, goodnight.
