Greetings Parents and Guardians,
Happy Spring! We are all looking forward to warmer weather and all that the spring season has to offer us here at the New Jersey Shore!
We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate our February and March fifth grade "Students of the Month" here at the Forked River School. These students were chosen by our special area teachers for their positive attitudes, helpful nature, and strong work ethic:

In an effort to reduce the risk of loss or damage, we are asking our students to please keep personal toys and electronic games at home. Cellular phones may be kept in backpacks and silenced as we recognize some students have phones for safety reasons. No photos or videos can ever be taken at school on the bus or at the bus stop as we have many students who can not be photographed. Thank you.
