Unity Day
On October 19, Forest City Middle School had over 90 students and staff participate in Unity Day. Unity Day is the signature event of National Bullying Prevention Month, and has been recognized in the United States since 2011. To participate in Unity Day, individuals, schools, communities, and businesses wear or display orange to show support for students who have been bullied.

On October 20, 2016, we were pleased to have motivational speaker, VJ Smith talk with our students. Mr. Smith is from Brookings, South Dakota and is the author of the book, “The Richest Man in Town,” Mr. Smith was very well received by our students as he shared three main points with them:
Relationships Matter Most
Have Gratitude…. be thankful and return kindness
Inspire Others
Upcoming Events
