I have been in South Forsyth High School for my Junior and Senior Year of High School. At first, I found the classes to be quite difficult but within a month I got the hang of it. South Forsyth is known for its competitiveness (in a good way). This allows students to complete tasks to their absolute efficiency and be productive throughout the year. Attending this school has also allowed me to gain great knowledge about different subject areas and avidly learn and gain skills that are vital for school. I believe I became much smarter after joining this school and have learned to set my good priorities over other ones. I became balanced, open-minded and formed a family of my own with the people at the school. Not only in academics, but South Forsyth also has many game days and events which just made me enjoy and appreciate this school even more. My experience was quite incredible at this school an I appreciate all the teachers and friends that provided and did all they could!
South Forsyth High School is an inclusive, welcoming, diverse, and safe environment for all students! My school has always been a place I am very excited to go to. Every teacher is kind, involved, and connected. I have had several teachers create such a positive impact on me and have become role models in my life! South Forsyth is an amazing school filled with tons of opportunities for each and every student no matter their situation. My school encourages raising awareness on current issues in America such as Mental Health and Suicide Prevention, making sure each student feels valued. This school has allowed me to enjoy learning and has encouraged me to work towards my bright future. I feel prepared for college, not stressed and not anxious like most students across America. I am proud to say I attend South Forsyth High School and I would encourage students/educators to attend/work at this school!
South Forsyth High School is amazing with their students and education. Teachers and staff care so much about the students and there are many teachers that any students can ask help for and they will always be there for you. South is very diverse and everyone is treated equally with care and we all support each other in any help. One thing I absolutely love about South is the many opportunities and experience students get to have! We have amazing field trips if you're in DECA, for example going of out state and also for foreign language there are a lot of amazing field trips like going to Paris or Spain!The one thing I would change about South is the school spirit. I believe that school spirit should be expressed in every event and not only football. There should be school spirit in pep rallys, soccer games, basketball games, baseball/softball games, plays, etc. Overall its a very good school.
