Forrestal is rocking e-learning! Way to be the solution today, teachers and students!











Good morning, This is Principal Kranz. I just wanted to share that some teachers are without power and others are having flickering power. We know you may be impacted too. In times like this we simply do our best but sometimes technology doesn't cooperate. Thanks for your understanding if your teacher is unavailable today. If you are having power issues, please just let your teacher know when you can too. Be safe. Ms. Kranz
