Forest Hills Elementary - PTO

Join Forest Hills in the “World Cup of Kindness” Fundraiser all through the month of November! We’ll raise funds for our school while spreading kindness throughout our community. Students will serve others, not sell items — a wonderful way to learn the power of giving!

FH WORLD CUP OF KINDNESS INTRO The month of November is our Forest Hills World Cup of Kindness fundraiser. Let's go FH!

We're kicking off our annual fundraiser called The World Cup of Kindness. Students trade acts of kindness for donations to the Forest Hills PTO! This year's prizes include outdoor learning space enhancements, nature and animal speakers, Ninja Anywhere, and a winter party! The theme aligns with the excitement of the upcoming World Cup hosted here in the U.S. in July. Our goals will be 2,500 Acts of Kindness (AOK) and $20,000 raised.

To get started, register and create your student’s donation page: https://my.raisecraze.com/app2/join/AMP756UM
Choose 3–5 AOKs to complete — be creative and have fun — then invite friends and family to donate and cheer on your child’s kindness journey.

Get ready for the Kindness-a-thon, running throughout November!

Our monthly dine-to-donate fundraiser is tonight! Check out Tono's Pizzeria & Cheesesteaks from 5-9 p.m. and mention Eden Prairie Schools and a portion of your purchase will benefit Forest Hills!

Due to staffing changes, we have changed the Helping Hands schedule to Tuesdays. If this change aligns with your schedule, let us know and sign up for some or all of the dates: bit.ly/FHhelphand

Picture Retake Day - Volunteers Needed: Thursday, Oct. 30
Can you help ensure our students get the best pictures possible? We need volunteers 7:30-9:30 a.m. and noon-1:30 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 30. If you can help for either time, please email Julie at FH: [email protected]

Forest Hills has done it again! Thank you to our families, students, book fair volunteers, PTO, teachers, staff, and book donors. We have the best community supporting our FH readers! Thank you for helping to make our Scholastic Book Fair the BEST! We sold $11,200 in books and merchandise, raising $3,600 for our school community. We hope to see you at our next Fair in February, until then, happy reading!

Thanks to these summer-like temperatures we're excited to host our Fall Fun Night outside today from 5-7 p.m. HELP NEEDED: We are still short of volunteers in several important roles: https://bit.ly/FHfallfun

It's almost time for the Scholastic Book Fair: Oct. 7-15. We need volunteers, please sign up here: https://bit.ly/FHbf25

Students will be able to preview or shop for books with their teacher during the school day. We also welcome families to shop on conference day/evenings. As always, every purchase at the fair benefits our school! Watch for the book fair flyer coming home with your student the week before the book fair.

Before you know it, it'll be time for Fall Parent/Teacher Conferences! We help the teachers manage this extra time by providing meals on their extra-long days. Help make this happen by providing a financial contribution (bit.ly/Donate_FH) or providing a drink donation to accompany the meals (bit.ly/FHdrink).
