The Forest Park community - students, faculty and staff, and parents - is committed to enriching and advancing the educational experiences of all of our members. Working as a team, individually and collectively, we seek to ensure that all participants take an active role in the educational process.
Using researched best practices as our guide, we seek to provide our students with a differentiated program of study that is best suited for them based upon their ability, readiness, interests, learning styles and needs. Incorporating different modalities of instruction, coupled with our staff's continuous enrichment of their own knowledge base, we strive to ensure that each child's potential is met.
