PRINCIPAL WEEKLY UPDATE TO FAMILIES
October 3, 2025
Forest Park Community
Good morning,
This afternoon we will hold our Forest Park Town Hall Assembly! Each month, this special
event recognizes students who are modeling our behavioral expectations and working hard in the
classroom. We encourage you to ask your child about today’s assembly and hear what they share
about the celebration.
Please also take a moment to review the flyers linked below. Our PTO is organizing the always-
popular Trunk Fest - if you’re interested in volunteering or attending, you’ll find all the details
there. You’ll also see information about other upcoming district events and activities that may be
of interest to your family.
Looking ahead, Thanksgiving is just around the corner. We are partnering with the North
Kingstown Food Pantry by collecting turkey gravy donations. Collection boxes will be available
in the school lobby through November 1st.
As always, thank you for your ongoing support and partnership. Please don’t hesitate to reach
out with any questions or suggestions.
Sincerely,
Joseph S. Rotz
