A large crowd of community members and local dignitaries gathered July 17 for the long-awaited grand opening of East Forsyth High School. The $85 million school is situated on nearly 90 acres off Jot-Em-Down Road and will open for students on Aug. 5. It will be the 7th traditional high school in the Forsyth County School System. The school was originally projected to open
in 2011, but was delayed because of the economic slowdown. Jeff Cheney will serve as the school’s first principal. He previously served as principal at North Forsyth High, South Forsyth High, and Oglethorpe Middle School in Savannah. East Forsyth High is similar in design to neighboring Denmark High School, and can accommodate 2,125 students.
