Dear River Forest Families,
The River Forest Food Service Department will be combining a week's worth of meals which will include 5 days of breakfast and lunches and handing them out Wednesday at your child’s home school.
Pick up hours will be from 11:00 to 1:00 pm and from 3:00 to 5:00 pm at each building. The price for these meals will be charged at your child's eligibility rate therefore if your student’s status is reduced or full pay your child must have funds in their lunch account in advance.
You can add money to your student’s account by using our online payment system SendMoneyToSchool.com.


Tonight’s MS Football game has been postponed until tomorrow due to inclement weather. Kickoff is at 5:30 at RF.

Back to School Night Info: 9/8 (5-6:30)



The Middle and High Schools are switching to Google Meet for our first person instruction until we are able to fix our other platform.
Thank you for your patience. Today and tomorrow has always been about getting kids logged in correctly.
Your child will connect directly from their teachers google classroom page.

In case you didn't make it to our "Virtual Back to School Night", this is the slideshow presentation that includes all the teachers' individual pages they shared. You can click on their "All About Me" link to learn more about your teacher as well as their "Class Expectations" link to know more about what this year will be like in that grade. The first slide in the Slideshow is a chalkboard that has a list of the teachers by grade. You can click on any name to go to their class page or you can scroll through the presentation slide-by-slide to see what Mr. Worthington covered before the live classroom presentations began. His slides come right after the chalkboard at the beginning. We got a lot of feedback on the live connections tonight and will work to smooth these out this week. Please be patient as this is new software and we are still learning how to use all the bells and whistles as well. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/e/2PACX-1vTM3CMomUuwMYsWo7_hhODA-lMsDm1w0GJY9j6zhBmjZfHgIYPtB47IhnBBCKEZYAlVWpnScrz9bJxH/pub?start=false&loop=false&delayms=3000
