🎉 There’s SO much happening at Forte Junior High! 🎉

School is about so much more than the basics—and we love seeing our Hornets find the things they’re passionate about and getting involved! 🐝💚

From football 🏈 and volleyball 🏐 to the fine arts 🎶🎨—band, choir, and art—there’s a place for everyone to discover a talent, build confidence, make friendships, and find their people.

We’re proud to be a campus where students can learn, compete, create, perform, and belong. 💚

There’s something special happening at FJH, and we can’t wait to see what this year brings!

Find your passion. Find your people. Be a Hornet. 🐝

Forte Junior High was placed on a Hold this morning for a student in need of medical attention. Reminder: a Hold status means students remain in their classes and school continues as usual.
