Initially impressed; however, the whole environment at Forbush has really gone downhill. Teachers act like they don’t want to be there and it rubs off on the children.

So glad to have the influence of the Teachers, Administration and other staff on my child. Every teacher has the best interest of the student at heart. The Principal is supportive of teachers and students and keeps parents informed.. With all the requirments placed on teachers, budget cuts, added responsibilities, students with behavioral and academic problems and dysfunctional families it is amazing that anyone wants to teach. Every place has its share of problems but I have found that everyone at FES strives to be fair. We cannot get our way all the time. You find that most who write reviews are the ones for whom things did not swing their way and are disgruntled.

After dealing with the kindergarden teachers, other grades wern't so bad. After the former assistant principle left, it's like we dont even have an assistant, shes hardly around. Teachers are great, Especially Mrs. Kraft and Mr. Highsmith. Two of the best!!! Mr. principle man needs to go ahead and retire. The parent envolvement is high and even the bus drivers are friendly.
