Dear Forest Park Families,
We have had a great start to the 2022-2023 school year! Already, staff and students are building positive relationships and so much learning is happening in classrooms. As we continue to address all of the academic needs of students and we thank you for your partnership in ensuring your child is well rested and prepared for school each day.
We ask that you send your child to school every day, on time unless he or she is sick so that we are not losing valuable instructional time. Following the impact the pandemic had on instruction over the last couple of years, we want to make sure we have every opportunity to make even larger gains in student growth and achievement. We can only accomplish this when students are in classrooms for instruction.
Thank you for all of your support!
Sincerely,
Martha Motley
