We are excited to announce a change in focus for Forman’s Summer Reading initiative! Forman’s 2024-2025 summer reading theme focuses on the power of experiential learning and provides context to your student’s Winterim experiences. 

Winterim has been a significant highlight in our curriculum and an opportunity for our community to engage in hands-on learning surrounding a particular topic. With this in mind, faculty members have compiled a selection of texts that encompass the knowledge students will gain on their respective Winterim journeys. The assigned Winterim summer reading options range from various texts, podcasts, and films to meet the student body’s interests surrounding experiential education. The assigned Winteirm faculty will lead small groups during Orientation to facilitate reflection, connection, and community activities and provide context to your student’s summer reading.

Click here to view the list of summer reading texts associated with each Winterim group. Please engage with the texts associated with your student’s Winterim. 

We ask students to be prepared to answer the following questions regarding their summer reading:

• What did you experience, feel, and appreciate during your reading, listening, or viewing that impacted you?

• What was your setting around you while you experienced the text?

• What questions do you have for the adult who chose your summer reading?

Winterim faculty may provide guidance for textual reflection in addition to these reflections. 

If you have any questions, please contact Dr. Stephanie Weaver, Associate Director of Academics, at stephanie.weaver@formanschool.org.

Please click the link below to download the 2024-2025 Dress Code Policy.

Please note the following changes: 

• No more Formal Friday dress: We will only require formal dress on Mondays and special occasions, like the Academic Awards Ceremony and Commencement.

• Forman Spirit Options: For our Tuesday through Friday class dress, students will be allowed to wear Forman sweatshirts in good repair (hoodies included) during the academic day. We will be providing more Forman polos and button-downs in the School Store, and some of our online stores (like Tommy Hilfiger) will have the option to add Forman crests to some clothing, like quarter-zips.

• Cardigans and Blazers with Dresses: Students who choose to wear dresses will only need to wear a blazer or a cardigan if their dress is sleeveless.

• Baseball Caps: While baseball caps still may not be worn during the academic day, they may be worn in the Dining Hall after school.

If you have any questions, please contact Matthew Bender P'27, Dean of Students, at matthew.bender@formanschool.org or 860.567.1836.

As a part of our commitment to fostering a culture of service and civic engagement, every student is required to complete a minimum of 15 community service hours per academic year. Please note that these hours do not include any disciplinary or National Honor Society (NHS) hours.

Summer presents an excellent opportunity for students to get a head start on fulfilling their community service obligations. Engaging in service projects during the summer months not only benefits our local communities but also allows students to explore their interests, develop new skills, and make meaningful contributions to society.

It is crucial that all students complete their required community service hours by the specified deadline. Failure to do so will result in the doubling of required hours for the following year. We believe this policy encourages accountability and reinforces the importance of active participation in community service endeavors.

If you or your child are looking for opportunities to complete the required community service hours over the summer, please consider reaching out to local nonprofits or community organizations.
