It is hard to believe that this is the last newsletter of this school year! I want to thank each one of you for the ample amount of volunteering and assisting you have done this year. From Watch D.O.G.S., popcorn helpers, classroom center/lunchroom helpers, and many more; we appreciate your support. We have had SO many fun events this year, not only for our students, but for our families as well. I would like to thank Forest Parent Club for all of their hard work for these events.

If you have a current student at Forest and do not plan to return this fall please call or email Ms. Annie in the office. If you have an incoming Kindergartener, please complete the online registration forms in PowerSchool and upload your documents by June 10th so your new student is active in PowerSchool before our system rolls over in July. Contact Ms. Annie in the office with any questions or concerns. APrusakiewicz@riverviewschools.com

Parents, don't forget to pick up any medication, inhalers, or epipens from your child's teacher or from the office before we close. Any medication that is not picked up will be disposed.

Have a relaxing and enjoyable summer. We look forward to seeing you this fall.

Go Pirates!

The 4th Grade Living Wax Museum Project, headed up by Mrs. Grunwald is where students research a historical figure. Students then had to read about their person, select important facts, create a poster and write an informative essay. On Tuesday, May 13th students dressed up as their person and presented their speech to other Forest students, staff and parents/family members that came to listen.

On Tuesday, May 20th a few students were selected from each of the Elementary schools to make their presentation to the Riverview Board of Education. Well done, Riverview 4th grade students.

Are your child's clothing drawers overflowing? Does your child have clothing that does not fit any longer? We are looking for gently used items for our Courtesy Closet. Items would be available for students that need spare clothes during the school day. For those spills during lunch, in STEAM or for when students accidently fall into puddles or mud outside. Items for children in grades K-2 are in high demand. Stretch pants, running pants and leggings are most desirable. Please drop off donations to the office. Thank you so much!
