Fifth grade is kicking off FPE's Field Day this morning! We have a fun day in store for all students.
Thank you to all of the family members who have volunteered to help make this event run smoothly! Our volunteer slots are full for the remainder of the day.
Welcome to the last week of the 2023-2024 school year! Important things for families to do this week:
Check for and pay fines and fees in the parent portal. (Did you know the district currently has more than $80,000 in outstanding meal account payments?)
Pick up any prescription medications from the clinic.
Remember sunscreen and water if your student(s) celebrate Field Day.
Pack a disposable lunch bag if your student(s) pack lunch on the last day.
Schedule your student(s) to get their vaccinations updated if they will be in Kindergarten, 8th or 12th grade next fall so they are ready to return in August.
Watch your email inbox for important updates this summer.
Plan your summer reading list!

In our piece, The Carnival of the Animals—the Aquarium, students used glow sticks to imitate the rainbow colors of the fish sparkling in the sun. As the flute and string instruments played, students imitated waves rolling and fish swimming in the water. In this instrumental piece, students used their listening skills to follow the story of the Aquarium, a musical joke written by Camille Saint-Saens.
Forest Park students participated in the Better Together 1.2 Mile Fun Run on Saturday morning! Great job, Falcons!
