Whe I talk to my family and friends where I used to live I can see the difference. FCS are just a step above. I was always a step ahead on everything. I knew more in basically every subject, we just went deeper. We were encouraged to push ourselves but find a healthy balance, and felt like others are encouraged to not stress themselves out. During the pandemic we went to school and weren’t distracted with masks. More than half the county did not learn or couldn’t learn because of masks, I will be so far ahead of everyone who was left unsupported at home to learn. I also feel like I had such great direction and support toward college. I was always a step ahead on taking my ACT, having a plan, etc. THe district also boosts excellent top level athletics and extracurricular activities. Literally anything you can think of, it is here!! We also have STEM, IB, AP Capstone and a million pathways.
Even through pandemic our education opportunities excelled. Being at home vs classroom wasn’t ideal but it kept us in step to finish school. This was traumatic for all of us who experienced at home learning. Teachers and students and administrators learned we are survivors my school has a can- do attitude! I’m proud to attend forsyth high.
I have been educated by Forsyth County Schools my entire life. I feel as though the school system is very much one big family- especially within Forsyth Central High School. The community within each school is very welcoming to students and a positive influence in their lives. I do think, though, there could stand to be more focus on the fine arts within the county. The funding (particularly, for band) is lacking within several, though not all, of the schools.
