More than ever, we need to get students reading. Studies prove* that children with more books at

home have higher-level reading skills, and attain more years of education overall. 

Lastly, this is a great opportunity to be a Book Fair volunteer! When you give your time, it helps make

our Fair an unforgettable reading experience where every purchase benefits our school directly. To

volunteer, visit our sign up:

Our goal is to raise $45,000 with 70% going directly back to classrooms and 30% being used on school-wide projects. This amount would allow our teachers and school to continue to: (partial list)continue to develop our makerspace, support educational assemblies and workshops, purchase library books, provide in-house field trips and presentations, update emergency supplies, acquire core literature book sets, buy art supplies, purchase technology such as projectors and document cameras, and purchase additional outdoor equipment. 

“The ask/goal” for this year, to provide the proposed programs and supplies, is a donation of $100 PER STUDENT. 

Let’s crush that goal and continue to make Forest Park one of the top schools in all of Fremont.

HOW TO DONATE:  Each student will have a personalized pledge page (check your email- around Oct 13) from 99Pledges that will be used for the collection of donations. This link is unique to each student and can be shared with anyone you wish- family and friends. You can even post on your social media pages! This will be coming out soon!  

Volunteers are wanted to help us learn more about each other and the cultures we are a part of. Wednesday, Nov. 5 from 8:20-11:00 am in the MUR. We would like to invite families to participate in the upcoming Multicultural Fair. Your involvement would greatly enrich the experience and celebrate our diverse community. Please fill out the google form in advance Sign up

Our annual Halloween Walk About will be Friday, October 31, at 9:00am for grades K-5. UN Day Parade and assembly will be Friday, Nov. 7, at 9:00 am for grades K-5

Families are welcome to view each of these events- we just remind you to remain on the sidewalks and not come directly on to the campus.

Halloween: Please remember that the regular dress code applies to costumes. Children must be able to change into and out of their own costumes without assistance, school staff cannot assist. Weapons or other dangerous props should not be brought to school. Please be reminded we will still be conducting instruction during the remainder of the day. Your child may want to wear regular clothes under their costume so they can remove their costume for the remainder of the day. 

We will not be responsible for lost costumes at school. It is best to leave extra props at home.

If your child was absent on picture day or you wish to return the pictures you purchased, the picture retake day is on Oct 29. Online ordering will be available beginning October 8 online at https://www.dorianstudio.com/order/

As we head into a busy and fun-filled season, we wanted to share a sneak peek of the exciting events the PTA has planned for your children.

Check the PTA September and October highlights page. Thanks to your continued support and membership, Forest Park PTA is able to organize these enriching activities that contribute to the students' well-rounded growth. Your involvement truly helps us bring these opportunities to life!

Thank you for being a part of our school community, and we look forward to seeing you at these events.

Students and adults are reminded to walk bikes, scooters etc... on all areas of the campus, especially sidewalks. Helmets are also required. Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our students and staff safe.
