Welcome from the Principal

I am eager to embrace all that it means to be a Forrest Elementary Ranger. I have served Hampton City Schools as a Principal, Assistant Principal, Curriculum Integration Technology Teacher, and Elementary Classroom Teacher.

My passion for education, care for students, staff, and families, and commitment to continuous improvement will always be evident. In a collaborative effort, we want students to thrive in all ways possible.

I look forward to partnering with you on a positive, productive, and successful school year at the Place to GROW!

Ms. Robyn Crump, Principal

Off and Away

On July 9, 2024, Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin signed an Executive Order mandating cell phone restrictions in public schools during instructional hours. This action is based on growing evidence that cell phone and social media use can negatively impact students' academic success and mental well-being. As a response, and in alignment with state guidance, Hampton City Schools (HCS) will adopt a comprehensive "cell phone-free education" policy, effective January 6, 2025, the first day students return from winter break.
