New Teacher Orientation is underway, and WS/FCS leaders welcomed new teachers with a parade in their honor at Mount Tabor High School. About 350 people were involved in the annual tradition this year, including principals, central office staff, and even the school's band with an energizing morning performance. The 2025-26 school year is just over two weeks away, and we can't wait to see the great work these educators will do with our students. Welcome to WS/FCS!

Sawyer Wemyss has known she wanted to be a teacher for most of her academic career, and her own teachers have been a constant source of inspiration. She’s invested a lot of time and effort into her teacher cadet classes at East Forsyth High School and even gave the keynote speech at a teacher cadet state conference. Now she’s off to the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, and she’s bringing along some indispensable firsthand experience.
“All of the teachers here have been very helpful,” Wemyss said. “It’s great because I can look at them and I might think ‘oh, that was a great lesson – let me steal that!’.”

Bence Burton has made his mark as a championship swimmer, a student body treasurer, and an officer for Reagan High School’s very successful DECA program. Now, he’s off to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill on the Morehead-Cain Scholarship, one of the most prestigious merit-based scholarships in the country. He says he couldn’t have done it without the opportunities he had at Reagan and the people who wanted to see him succeed.
“Any teacher, any adult, any administrator that you go talk to is just so open and willing to help you,” Burton said. “I’m so grateful for all of the help and all of the advice I’ve had from so many different teachers who have impacted me along the way.”
