Letter from the PTA President :
Welcome to Forest Park PTA Website!

Dear Forest Park Parents,
Forest Park PTA board welcomes all parents and students. We also extend a warm welcome to
our new principal Guillermo Gomez and our wonderful teaching staff. Hope you all had a great
summer.
Right after summer, it was very exciting to learn that this year School Digger ranks Forest Park
Elementary 8th of 5188 California public elementary schools! This is a great evidence of a
wonderful school and parent support for the students.
Every child's first school is his/her home and parents are their first teachers. An involved and a
well informed parent makes that experience an enriched one. Forest Park Elementary PTA
community is a very active one and it gives me great pleasure to be part of that community.
Becoming a PTA member is a way to be involved with the activities of the PTA. The PTA offers
programs that enable your children academically and socially, with a focus on health and fitness.
Join the PTA today and become a member of the biggest membership organization in the state of
California that works solely for your children.
I would like to bring your attention to PTA's biggest fundraiser, Jumpstart. Year after year Forest
Park PTA has given 70% of funds from Jumpstart right back to your child's classroom. Of the
remaining 30%, we were able to fund field trips for all children in the school across all grade
levels, fund programs like Science Night and FAME-ous to name a few. Please contribute to the
Jumpstart program to help your child's classroom and help the PTA fund exciting programs for
students this year.
Sincerely,
Jyothi Bhattaram,
PTA President, 2011 - 2012
