Head of School Holiday on Monday

Head of School Adam K. Man P'15 announced that Monday, May 1st, will be a Head of School Holiday in honor of our seniors. “They have worked hard, and their efforts have paid off in a wonderful array of college options. I am proud of everything they have accomplished,” he said. May 1st is National College Decision Day when seniors nationwide commit to colleges. “It is a wonderful time to celebrate the achievements of our seniors. Enjoy the day and congratulate our seniors,” said Mr. Man.

All students must attend athletic and recreational obligations starting at 4:00 p.m. on Monday.

Course Curriculum Guide

The 2023-2024 Course Curriculum Guide is now available. Information about the course sign-up process will be shared next week. In the meantime, please look through the course offerings and discuss the options for next year with your student.

Earth Day Celebrations

The Forman community was busy with service projects on Saturday for Earth Day. It was great to be out in nature, give back to the community, and pitch in to keep our campus and the surrounding areas clean and beautiful. The Truth, Respect, and Kindness expeditions (TReKs) included planting flowers around campus, picking up litter on campus and in Litchfield, clearing brush from trails, and planting seeds in the campus food garden.

Alumni Band on Campus

Ben Ferguson '11 and his band, The Amatory Murder, performed in the Malcolm G. Chace Student Center on Saturday evening. The atmosphere was lively, and the band had students up on their feet dancing! Students enjoyed the live music, sweet treats, delicious food from the Bistro, and connecting with the band after the performance.

Summer Ship or Storage Program

We are continuing our partnership with UPS. Students can use UPS services for summer storage or pack and ship home, as we do not have on-campus storage options. Boxes and packing tape will be available for students to purchase on May 9th. Please click here for more details about UPS shipping and storage.
