Dear Forestville Community,

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to the Forestville School for their generous inclusion of our consortium students in the recent Fall Festival on October 31st. It was a wonderful event that brought together students, families, and staff in a spirit of celebration and community.

At the West Sonoma County Consortium, we are committed to fostering an inclusive environment for all students. The participation of our consortium students at the Fall Festival is a testament to our ongoing efforts to create meaningful opportunities for connection and engagement. We believe that inclusion enriches the educational experience and strengthens our community as a whole.

We are continually working to enhance our inclusion initiatives and would love to hear any feedback or suggestions you might have. Your insights are invaluable as we strive to make our programs even more welcoming and supportive.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss our inclusion efforts further, please do not hesitate to reach out. We are here to listen and assist in any way we can.

Thank you for your continued support and for being an integral part of our community.

Warm regards,

Sarah Zils

We are lucky to have such a wonderful, dedicated support staff at our school. Our instructional assistants are vital to our programs and we really feel the impact when they need to be out to attend trainings or take a sick day. We need dependable substitutes who can step into their roll, sometimes on short notice.

If you, or someone you know, would like to be a regular (or semi-regular) paid substitute for classified staff members, please let us know!!

In order to keep our students safe at all times throughout the day, including at the start and ending times of school, we ask for your assistance:

• Students are not to be on campus prior to 8:00 AM or after the final dismissal bell at 2:55 PM (2:00 PM on Tuesdays).

• There is NO drop-off or pick up of students in the school’s front parking lot.

• At the back school parking lot, please DO NOT park, double park, or vacate your vehicle along the painted “Loading Zone Only” curb.

Please help set a good example for our students by always following these safety procedures!
