FEATURE STORY
Graduates Offer Inspiration to Elementary Students

Forest Grove High School's graduating seniors went back to their roots today -- to their elementary schools -- to deliver a message of hope and inspiration to their younger peers. Wearing their caps and gowns, the new grads visited all seven elementary schools. The goal of this new tradition, said FGHS assistant principal Brian Burke, is to serve as role models for the younger students and help them aspire to graduate themselves. The graduates shown above were a big hit at Tom McCall Upper Elementary, earning whoops and cheers from their younger audience.

Ride For Schools Benefits Ed Foundation
If you like to ride bikes, you can generate cash to benefit schools. The "Ride For Schools" organized bike ride on June 29 is a fundraiser for local education foundations, including the Education Foundation of Forest Grove.  Riders will start and finish at Aloha High School. There are two routes to choose from - a 25-mile relatively flat route and a 40-mile route with a challenging hill climb. Both routes will have a rest stop in the middle with snacks, water/sports drink and rest rooms. After the ride, a light lunch will be served. One hundred percent of the fundraising proceeds will be given to the education foundation selected by the rider. The money will be used to purchase classroom needs and to enhance the learning experience for children. To register or for more information, visit www.rideforschools.com
