"This is my first year at Forwood, my son is in Kindergarten. I have had a wonderful experience so far! I think that Mrs. VanSuch is a wonderful principal and great with the kids. She is definitely not a warm and fuzzy person though so don't expect her to be overly friendly to you as a parent. But she's wonderful with the kids!! The teachers and staff I have encountered both within my son's classroom and throughout the school while I am there volunteering once a week are all extremely friendly and helpful. I can't think of a negative thing to say about Forwood Elementary."

"forwood elementary is a somewhat dismal and remote school. the staff is somewhat aloof, the teachers seem to have been there much to long to be effective, the school is very stict. the caffeteria issub-standard and overall grade scores make this school a typical puplic school with no direction. there must be change there in order to be effective. a concerned parent"

"After 4 years at Forwood with 2 daughters attending, I can highly recommend the school to others. We've had great teachers, responsive staff and a good learning experience for each. Mrs. Chetkowski, Mrs. Van Such & Mr. Davis are great teachers and you'd be lucky to get them. Christine Harmon"
