What an incredible way to begin the 2026-2027 school year! Forrest Grove Middle School proudly welcomed students back to campus with our annual Tunnel of Hope celebration, creating an unforgettable start filled with excitement, encouragement, and Bulldog pride. The event brought together students, educators, and community members to celebrate the beginning of another year of learning and success.
As students arrived, they were greeted with smiles, cheers, and enthusiastic support from a crowd of people who believe in their potential. The positive energy throughout the event was contagious and helped create a sense of belonging and confidence for every student entering our doors. The Tunnel of Hope served as a powerful reminder that our school community is committed to supporting students every step of the way.
We extend our sincere gratitude to our agency representatives, School Board members Dr. Mills, Ms. Hawley, and Ms. Richardson, Chief of Schools Dr. Sommer, community partners, and dedicated volunteers who joined us for this special occasion. Their presence and encouragement made a lasting impact on our students and helped make the event a tremendous success. Together, we have launched a new school year filled with optimism, opportunity, and the promise of great things ahead for our Bulldogs.
