Forsyth Country Day School

Forsyth Country Day School is a coeducational independent day school in Lewisville, North Carolina, serving about 850 students from age 2 through grade 12. The school keeps average class size at 14 across K–12, which is uncommon for a school of this enrollment. That ratio means teachers know each student as an individual, not a seat in a large lecture hall.

The curriculum spans four languages—Mandarin Chinese, French, Spanish, and Latin—plus core academics, fine arts, performing arts, and competitive athletics. Faculty teach subject matter, but they also coach teams, sponsor clubs, or direct performances. This dual role is expected and built into the culture. Teachers here work across multiple programs rather than closing their classroom door at 3 p.m.

Forsyth operates with financial stability. The school maintains solid revenue and reserves, which supports consistent professional development funding and reliable benefits packages. That stability matters: budgets don't swing wildly, positions don't disappear mid-year, and the school invests in the people who work there. For a day school job in the North Carolina Piedmont—between Charlotte and Greensboro—that predictability is valuable.

The school hires year-round for classroom teaching in all divisions, coaching roles, and arts instruction. Spring and summer bring the most openings, timed to fall recruitment. Because teachers stay, turnover is low. Each hire shapes culture and curriculum in ways that matter.

For educators seeking a day school teaching position with genuine small classes, no boarding duties, and the chance to influence multiple programs, Forsyth Country Day School offers stability and scope without residential expectations.
