Author Visit On Thursday, October 8th author Penny Warner will be visiting Forest Pines to talk to 4th & 5th graders during the school day about writing.

Homework Update Paragraph of the Week journals were collected today in order to provide feedback to the students. They will be returned on Monday. If your child would like to work on Paragraph of the Week this weekend, they may do so on a piece of lined paper and they can glue it in their journal on Monday.
