Memo from Steve Passinault, FHC Principal
FHC Community:
We kicked off homecoming week yesterday with the first-ever Ranger Rumble Homecoming Assembly where we brought together 3500 kindergarten through twelfth grade Rangers for a fun-filled homecoming assembly and celebration of the Forest Hills Central Ranger community. It was a wonderful way to show pride in a community that values and supports our schools so well.
The Kent County Health Department (KCHD) recently provided updated information regarding the extremely rare but serious mosquito-borne virus EEE and the fact that mosquitoes go into a dormant state when temperatures are colder. These colder temperatures will allow us to hold our Friday homecoming activities as planned.
The schedule of events for Friday 10/18 are:
3:00 pm - 7:00 pm Tailgating on Campus
5:00 pm - 6:00 pm Homecoming Parade
7:00 pm Homecoming Game (with halftime festivities)
The KCHD still recommends that people wear long sleeves and pants and use mosquito repellant until the first hard freeze of the season.
