Forest Hills Public Schools Foundation: Building Our Future

The Forest Hills Public School district continues to achieve excellence — currently ranking as one of the best school systems in Michigan. That is precisely why it is time for the Forest Hills Public Schools Foundation, in partnership with the district, to look thoughtfully at what must be done to retain that leadership position.

The vision of Forest Hills Public Schools is to create a new model of education which equips every student with the 21st century skills essential for success. If Forest Hills truly wants to create a new system of learning and maintain its leadership position in the decades to come, then it must attract research and development funding from people who want to invest in the future success of our students and schools.

Our goal is to attract investment funds to create opportunities for innovation. The Forest Hills Public Schools Foundation will provide the capital needed to fund the research and development of innovations that can lead to new levels of excellence. Once those innovations have been tested and proven, the Foundation can then provide the funds to scale them to the entire district.
