Dear Forest Hills Families,

  The first week of Distance Learning during the 2020-21 school year was a success. Thank you for all you are doing to support your child(ren) during this time and under these conditions. We understand it is not ideal and yet we are so glad that we are able to continue the learning process for our students. Should there be anything you need during this time (school supplies, technology support, etc.), please do not hesitate to reach out to your child(ren)’s teacher, Mr. Walters or me. 
  
Most Sincerely,
Connie Hytjan
