Principal's Message - 9/8/19

Good evening, this is Dr. Kennedy, principal of Forbush High School. I hope everyone has had a relaxing weekend. I have a few announcements and updates I would like to share with you this evening.

Spirit Week
To begin this evening, I would like to remind everyone that next week is Unifi Bowl Spirit Week as our football team prepares to take on county-rival Starmount this Friday. The themes for each day next week include:

Monday - Team Jersey Day
Tuesday - Tie-Dye Day
Wednesday - Space Day
Thursday - Throwback Day
Friday - America Day

Canned Food Drive
Forbush and Starmount High Schools will also be participating in a Canned Food Drive this week. Students, if you bring five cans of food to your first period class, you name will be entered into a drawing to win a Student Athletic pass. Each time you donate five cans, your name will be entered again. We will draw four winners (one from each grade level) on Friday. If you already have an athletic pass, you will receive $40. All canned food items will be donated to a local community ministry.

Clubs and Organizations
There will be a meeting for all Skills members on Wednesday, September 11, beginning at 7:40am in Mr. Senter’s room (519E).

Our first Youth and Government club meeting will be this Thursday, September 12, beginning at 7:45am in Ms. Sizemore’s room (304-C).

Senior Parent Night - September 16
Looking ahead to the week after next, I want to remind all parents of current seniors that there will be a Senior Parent Night held on Monday, September 16. This meeting will be held in the FHS Media Center beginning at 6pm. If you have any questions, please call or email our Student Services office, including counselors Anna Whitley and Cori Fricke, or secretary Debbie Monroe.

Home Sports This Week
Tuesday - Women's Tennis v Atkins (4:30) and JV and Varsity Volleyball vs North Surry (JV 5:00, Varsity 7:00)
