Now that spring break for Forney ISD is finished, the last part of the school year begins with time marching just a bit faster than perhaps students, teachers, and parents want. It is again a time of last “firsts” for students and parents– last first game, meet, theater opening night, band concert, state level event. But it is also time for many first “firsts” – first varsity start, first starring role, first solo performance.

The teachers in Forney ISD also are working even harder to get all of their students ready for the end of year testing and utilizing the grants that were funded last fall by the Forney Education Foundation. The teachers have given us a few updates as to how well the grants have helped in their classrooms which is music like the bird songs in Spring are to our ears. The freshness of spring mornings certainly can put a bounce in one’s step, and the teachers in Forney ISD are greeting the last part of this school year with gusto after the break.

Don’t miss the chance to honor the campus teachers of the year by attending the awards dinner on April 8 at The OC from 6-7:30 p.m. If your company or family would like the opportunity to provide a sponsorship, the details are available on the website – www.forneyisdfoundation. org. Plan your calendar like you would plan your spring garden - lots of color, lots of variety, lots of happiness!!
