The first high school football game in over 75 years will be played at Forsyth High School this evening. The game time has been moved from 6:00 to 7:00 because of the extremely hot weather. Please come out and support your Pirates!!! They have been working really hard.
We only had a week of school in August, but that doesn't mean we don't have students who stepped up and started off the school year with a positive attitude and motivation worthy of recognition! Congratulations to our August Students of the Month in the Jr High and High School: Senior Ellie and 8th Grader A.J.. About Ellie, the nominating teacher shared: Ellie has kicked off the year by taking a commanding role in student council and has done a terrific job with organizing and planning our fundraising, upcoming meetings and decor already. On top of this, she is a kind hearted and hardworking young lady and student. About A.J., the nominating teacher shared: She demonstrated kindness by helping a new peer find her way around school on the first day.
It was a good first week! Thank you to all of our students for a great start!

A huge thank you to Coach Brannan, Cooper, Logan, Jayden, Jax, Collin, and Tracy (and any others who were helping before I was able to snap pictures) for spending a hot Sunday afternoon giving our ball field a much-needed facelift! From power washing and painting the dugouts to painting handrails and taking care of all the little details, your hard work has made a BIG difference!
We are so grateful for the time, effort, and Pirate pride you poured into making our field look great!
Now, come see it for yourself and support our Pirates as they take the field for their home opener this Thursday, September 3! 🏴☠️⚾️
