Register Now for Next School Year

Registration in Skyward Family Access is required and is now open for kindergarten and all returning students.


Kindergarten Details — Please register your kindergarten students by February 16 to ensure the important decisions related to kindergarten can be made and communicated to families and staff in a timely manner.

It's a Small World at Forest Glen

Forest Glen started 2025 with a collaborative castle inspired by Disney art legend Mary Blair. It's a Small World at Forest Glen! While every Forest Glen Eagle made a piece of the castle, this project goes hand in hand with 4th grade's upcoming literacy unit about artists.
