Marching Band Champions!
The marching band has now won a record breaking 3 grand champion trophies. We are very proud of their hard work and success, but most importantly, they are entertaining audiences as a crowd favorite everywhere we go. Congrats to everyone for an incredible season so far!
Cedar Point Trip
We are a couple weeks away from our state finals and cedar point trip. The main items to note at this point are:

  • The student hotel fee is due next Thursday. That fee can be paid online or a check made out to the Forest Hills Band Boosters can be submitted to the band directors.

  • Each student will either need a 2026 Kings Island/Cedar point pass or a purchased ticket for the day of our visit. Links for all of these items can be viewed on our trip page below.
