FHPS Bond Updates

Background

The words: invest, secure, inspireIn November of 2018, the Forest Hills Public Schools community approved a bond proposal to provide $130 million to fund capital improvements phased in over eight years. The Forest Hills Public Schools 2018 bond proposal was developed to INVEST in the district’s infrastructure by upgrading aging systems to save operational costs, SECURE our schools by upgrading safety measures, and INSPIRE our students by providing modern learning environments. For additional historical information about the 2018 bond, click here.

Board Updates

The board of education received an update on completed projects as well as projects in progress at their September board committee meetings. You may view the presentation slides below, or by clicking here.
