PRINCIPAL WEEKLY UPDATE TO FAMILIES
MARCH 20, 2026
Forest Park Community,
First and foremost, thank you to our PTO and all of our volunteers who made our Family Dance
such a success! Our students were dancing, singing, dressed up, and truly having a blast. It was
also wonderful to see families connecting with one another - what a great community event.
As a friendly reminder, if you haven’t already done so, please take a moment to complete the
SurveyWorks Family Survey. Our goal is to have 100 families complete the survey, and we
are currently at 26 responses.
To better understand the scoring process, please review the SurveyWorks Scoring Made Simple
graphic below. A live link to the survey is included in both the graphic and the letter.
Finally, please take some time to review the detailed attachments below, which include
recognitions, upcoming celebrations, activities, and programs for next week (School Picture Day,
Unified Spirit Week, PTO fundraiser, etc.).
Thank you, as always, for your continued partnership and support.
Joseph S. Rotz, Principal
