Visitor Parking

All visitors must park in the designated visitor parking spaces. Please do not park in spaces designated for faculty and staff or in the bus loop. 

Controlling School Traffic is Essential for Safety

Students should be picked up and dropped off at the car loops only.  Parents wishing to park should walk their children to the front gate. For safety reasons, parents are not allowed to walk their children to their classrooms.

Cell phones or items of personal technology (ipods, MP3 players) are not to be used during instructional hours. If a student possesses personal technology, they should be turned off and kept out-of-sight inside a pocket, book bag, or purse. If these devices disrupt the educational process or out at any point during the school day, progressive discipline will be implemented and the item in question will be confiscated. The item will be only be released to a parent. Pick up may occur from 8:00 am to 3:30 pm. School Board employees will not be held liable for wireless communication devices (cell telephones, camera telephones, or pagers) that are lost, stolen, or confiscated while in their possession.

The dress code rules enforced at our school align directly with the District's Unified School Dress - Policy 5309. Review the District policies outlined on this page for more information.

Forest Glen follows the School Board of Broward County Code of Student Conduct for appropriate school attire. Clothes should be suitable, comfortable, and safe for normal school activities and reflect pride.

All Broward County Public Schools conduct regular exercises and drills at various times as outlined in the Florida Fire Code and Florida Administrative Code.

To aid in this process, every school has a designated SAFE team comprised of faculty and staff who have been specially trained on appropriate procedures to ensure every school follows safety protocol.

Discussion-based tabletop exercises are also conducted regularly with staff, faculty, and community partners, and the results of these exercises are documented and incorporated into school safety plans as necessary.  

All public schools are required to conduct one (1) fire drill per month with one (1) additional occurring within the first 30 days. Additionally, public schools are required to conduct, at a minimum, six (6) emergency drills every school year that are nonconcurrent with fire drills. One emergency drill must take place within the first ten (10) days of the beginning of the school year, and the remaining drills may not occur more than forty-five (45) days apart. Four (4) of the six (6) emergency drills must address active threats. The remaining two (2) drills must address other emergency events, such as severe weather, natural disasters, hazardous materials incidents, or reunification.

Students are expected to fully participate in drills and follow the directions of faculty and staff.
