Wellness
Forest Hills School District is focused on supporting student wellness and meeting the social, behavioral and emotional needs of children in our school community. We believe every student can Flourish in the Forest.
We have a multidisciplinary team dedicated to a variety of topics, ranging from mental health and behavioral supports to homelessness and foster care, to engage all students in meaningful, purposeful and challenging learning. FHSD believes learning takes place when students are secure, valued and able to take risks. In order to achieve that goal, we offer support and resources to all students facing non-academic barriers to learning.
