Welcome To Edwin Forrest School

Our Mission
Edwin Forrest Elementary School will foster achievement, academics, and future leaders. We allow for diversities and unique learning styles that enable children to become lifelong learners through the use of critical thinking, problem solving, and real life application.

What’s Happening Now:

Parents, Guardians and Families,

The new “Parent Portal” is now available for you. If you want to keep updated on your child’s academics then please sign up with an email account. Please click here to get to the portal page.

Kindergarten registration is open. If your child will be five years old before September 1, 2018 register him or her today.  For more information click here.

NEW POLICY: There has been a change to the school schedule. School used to resume after Labor Day, but now we are starting a week earlier. The first day of school for students in all grades PreK-6 is August 27, 2018. Please mark your calendar as a reminder of this change. There has also been a change to the bell schedule and admission procedures.  School now starts at 8:26 am.

NEW POLICY: Please do not let your child bring any form of slime to school. It will be thrown in the trash if found by any adult in the building. The slime gets all over and causes problems in class.
