CONGRATULATING EARLY COLLEGE OF FORSYTH
(Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to congratulate Early College of
Forsyth, which was recently named one of America's top high schools by
Newsweek magazine.
Established in 2008, Early College of Forsyth is a partnership
between Winston-Salem/Forsyth County schools and Forsyth Technical
Community College. The school provides a small learning community of
students with the opportunity to earn both a high school diploma and an
associate's degree. By considering their learning needs and providing
support services, every student is given the tools to excel in both
high school and college courses.
Early College of Forsyth provides an advanced educational experience
that promotes independence, responsibility for learning, and community
involvement. America needs more of this type of innovative learning
that equips students for success in college, career, and life.
