The Forsyth County Education Foundation is committed to growing the iChallenge. Up until now, the foundation has focused on providing school grants with the Duck Dive for Education fundraiser, held each spring. With the addition of the Dr. Jim and Peggie Morrow Glow Run for Educators 5K, the foundation can expand its reach to a new area of need – ensuring we have the best of the best teaching and supporting our students!
Forsyth County Schools is not immune to the teacher and school counselor shortage facing our nation. We have found recent success “growing our own” by establishing teacher prep programs at all Forsyth County high schools, but face a large void when it comes to supporting the educational needs of current paraprofessionals (teacher assistants) who wish to advance to a teaching position and teachers who wish to advance to a school counselor role.
With your donation, we will be able to fund these much-needed staff scholarships for current FCS employees in these two areas!
