It's been a blast to be apart of the school in the two years I'm in and I still have two more years left in high school and as well the community is amazing this school proves us do be successful after high school. The school has a lot of alumni nights and it's very welcoming for past and as well future students.

My experience at Forest Park was good and bad. My involvement with the students and teacher I feel like made my experience a little difficult. I was very shy and quite all the time so that made it hard for me to be part of things going on around the school. The teachers were very helpful and understanding. Everytime a student needed help they always offered office hours and feedback. The safety of the school made it a little scary because of the people in the school. Most of the student in the school come from a rough background and they are very aggressive in a way. But they were all very welcoming.I would like to see the atmosphere of the students to change.My overall experience at Forest Park high was good.

My experience at forest park high school was difficult and easy but it was a lot of fun and we worked hard to get where we are now. At first I thought it was gonna be the worse school ever but turns out the school was actually family and the best place to send your kids. They teach you growth in yourself and also teach you responsible and leadership and commitment. I learned so much from that school thank you

Unfortunately, Forest Park High School is not a school I would readily recommend. One of the most concerning issues is the lack of meaningful parent engagement, which also doesn't seem to be encouraged by the school. Communication with parents is minimal; I've only seen information regarding one PTA...

There are amazing things happening at Forest Park that a lot of people don’t even realize. Transformation of the Forest Park they used to know started when Principal Mouzone took over. She not only challenges the students to do better but she challenges her entire staff, families and the community....

Principal Mouzone is a horrible leader because of her petty unprofessional behavior towards people who works for her.
