Forest Hill Construction Update

Projects moving ahead. Campus safety remains top priority.

Dear Forest Hill Community,

We are excited about the modernization happening at Forest Hill and look forward to welcoming families back to school. The site will be fully functional with access to all doors of all rooms and the new lunch shelter ready to use. All completed areas will be clean and ready to use, and the entire site will be safe for students and staff.

The summer construction projects were ambitious, with much of it happening underground. 

• New phone lines, fiber optic cable, and clock/bell/paging system throughout site

• Switchgear and wiring for new main electrical service

• New storm drains and sanitary sewer

• New lunch shelter, built-in lunch tables, and concrete paving and planters

Continued Construction

Our school is getting a major facelift that takes time. Work will continue while the school year is underway:

• The area around the library will be fenced off so new decorative concrete and paving can be completed in the weeks after school opens.The library will still be able to be used.

• Planting of trees and bushes will happen by early fall.

• Striping on the playground will happen a couple of weeks after school starts.

• Construction of the new Administration Wing and the parking lot next to it. (Scheduled completion is early next year. The office staff is staying in the existing office until we can move in.)  

Parking and Access

The pick-up and drop-off will be the same as last school year, which is at the curb of McCoy Ave. Parking remains the same: in front of the cafeteria and in the back lot by the softball field. (See our youtube video: Forest Hill - How to Use Drop Off Circle)

Warmly,

Ms. Chalfant & Mrs. Armann
