SUPERINTENDENT'S MESSAGE Looking ahead to the coming year is exciting for each of us. There will be new subjects to be studied and mastered, subjects to be studied and masted, subjects seen before, to be remembered and ourknowledge of them expanded, new friends to be made, and old acquaintances to renew. Opportunity upon opportunity awaits each of you to learn and grow both academically and personally. I ask and challenge each of you to dedicate yourself to persuing the learning and growth opportunities available to you in the Forest Municipal School District. Your hard work and dedication can and will make this year successful. This handbook serves as a guide to the educational opportunity available to you and to the rules and regulations, which govern our school system. Please read the handbook carefully and ask your teacher, if there is something you do not understand. Good luck in the 2000-2001. Have a great year!
