Contact Information
Please ensure that your personal information is current and updated as needed. For emergency purposes, please report any changes to the office which include: phone numbers, places of employment, daycare information and medical information etc.

Medication Administration

Medication can only be administered with the proper forms completed by a medical doctor. Changes in medication or dosage always require an updated form. Short term medications i.e. penicillin require the same form to be completed. Your doctor needs to fill the form out and a copy will be required at the school.

Bicycles

Students require parental permission to bring their bikes to school. Students will walk their bikes on the school property and when crossing the road. Bikes are to be placed in the bicycle areas and should be locked. Students ride to and from school at their own risk. SAFETY HELMETS ARE THE LAW. Therefore, Forest Hill insists that students wear helmets.

Lost and Found
Please label all personal items, this helps us easily locate the owner. Unlabeled items/clothing are located around the office to the left. Please note that items that are not claimed are donated to a local charity. Ensure that your child(ren) check for any missing items. Parents should sign in at the office before checking the lost and found.
NOTE: Valuable items such as Ipods, cell phones, Gameboys, Nintendo DS, jewelry and non school related money should NOT be brought to school.

Emergency Evacuations And Code Red
All students and staff are made thoroughly aware of evacuation routes and Code Red procedures. Procedures are practised regularly during school year. The Kiss and Ride area is part of the Emergency Vehicle area. NO VEHICLES ARE TO BE LEFT UNATTENDED IN THIS LOCATION.

Thanks to Our School Council Members:
Many thanks to Emily McMillin, who has been our School Council Chair for over five years! All of us here at Forest Hill have benefited from her dedication to both council and fundraising. We wish her all the best as her youngest child goes off to high school in September.
A huge thanks, as well, to Laurie Crosson for her many years of commitment to council, volunteering and fundraising. Again, Laurie's hard work and dedication has been a great asset to the Forest Hill P.S. community!
They will both be missed immensely!
