Philosophy and Programs
Our motto of Scholarship, Leadership, Friendship, and Stewardship is a testament to our philosophy and core values. We believe that all children are capable of reaching their potential and that learning happens every day in and out of the classroom. We have an award-winning drama program and championship sports teams that allow all students to participate. Every student gets a spot on the team and every student gets a role in the play. We strive every day to make connections between individual behavior of students and the "world outside of our school". Where throwing your trash in the garbage is helping the environment. Where helping a friend is helping create a more humane world.
A rich music, physical education, and visual and performing arts program is integrated into the curriculum. Middle-School students are given the opportunity to choose enrichment classes such as foreign language, technology, a comprehensive art program, and student leadership. Additionally, we offer students an opportunity to act as cross-age tutors, working with teachers and students at lower grade levels. These invaluable experiences help keep students “connected” to each other and give opportunities for older students to act as role models for younger students.
We have added a "Directed Studies" class which offers intervention and enrichment classes during the school day. Some of these classes include study skills and intervention classes in Math and Language Arts as well as enrichment classes in Law, Photography and Foreign Language.
The aim of Forestville Academy is to graduate responsible and productive citizens with strong critical thinking and academic skills by providing a rigorous, dynamic, comprehensive curriculum delivered in partnership with the community, family and a competent, qualified staff in a safe and caring environment.
Our teachers and staff work hard to provide the best educational experience for our students. Parent partnership is a high priority and is essential for student success. Forestville Academy School has a rich tradition of outstanding student achievement and we provide a sound, standards-based education, while promoting high moral character of all students.
We have developed this website to be a valuable resource for our school community and hope you visit on a regular basis as well as participate in the educational process of your children. Strong school board and administrative leadership, excellent teachers and staff, positive parental involvement and community support enables all students to reach high academic standards.
We are committed to moving forward and continuing to pledge our best effort on behalf of your children.
