Greetings from the Forest Park PTA

PTA page photoThe Forest Park Elementary School PTA welcomes every parent, guardian, teacher and staff member of the school community. Please consider joining our unit for $5 per year. Membership allows you to have your voice heard, be in on the decision-making process and become part of a group that makes our school the best it can be.

The Forest Park PTA continues to connect the dots between home, school and community. We meet the second Tuesday of each month at 7 p.m. in the school library. Meetings last approximately one hour. Come hear what is going on at Forest Park. Consider volunteering at an event, reading to your child’s class or chaperoning on a field trip. Any amount of time you can give is appreciated! Be a part of your child’s education! Click here for a membership application (pdf).

A list of PTA meeting dates can be found on the right column of this page. Please check the Google web calendar on the school homepage for meeting dates/changes and a list of monthly PTA-sponsored events.

Come on out for many events and projects scheduled throughout the year, join the fun and catch up with other Forest Park families! Volunteers are always needed and no amount of time is too small.

As always, please see any PTA officer for more information. Thank you for the time you give. Without you, we would be unable to do the wonderful things scheduled for this year in our school.

“Not every child has an equal talent or an equal ability or an equal motivation, but children have the equal right to develop their talent, their ability, and their motivation.” - John F. Kennedy
