PRINCIPAL WEEKLY UPDATE TO FAMILIES

MAY 8, 2026

PRINCIPAL WEEKLYUPDATE TO FAMILIESMAY 8, 2026

Forest Park Community,


Last week, we held our monthly Forest Park Town Hall Assembly as part of our PBIS efforts to

promote a positive and safe school environment. Students were recognized with EAGLE Awards

for Giving Respect, and this month’s focus is on Lending a Hand. Please click here to view the

poster used during classroom discussions.


We would also like to thank our PTO for a memorable Staff Appreciation Week. Throughout the

week, something special was planned each day, and we know this took a great deal of planning

and attention to detail. We greatly appreciate your time and generosity.


A friendly reminder that our fifth graders will be participating in the Rhode Island Next

Generation Science Assessment (NGSA) on Wednesday, May 13th, and Thursday, May 14th.

Please make sure your fifth grader comes to school with a fully charged device each day.


Finally, and most importantly, I would like to wish all mothers and caregivers a very Happy

Mother’s Day!


Joseph S. Rotz

Principal
