Three decades post-merger, Guilford County Schools is on the verge of a new chapter – one full of opportunity and promise for the future of our children and grandchildren. However, we recognize that the context in which each school operates has changed. Technological advances, globalization, mental health challenges and a pandemic have all contributed to these rapid changes.
To continue as a thriving school district and community in the 21st century requires us to reimagine what education can and should be.
So we did.
In 1991, our community overwhelmingly supported a referendum to bring together three school districts to create Guilford County Schools, a unified district committed to supporting all children in our community.
Following her announcement as superintendent, Dr. Whitney Oakley launched Better Together, a series of community conversations with various stakeholder groups.
With Dr. Oakley at the helm, Guilford County Schools has hosted community conversations and engaged participants across our community to inform Better Together, our new strategic direction with a singular focus to make Guilford County Schools the best place to learn, work and grow.
JOIN US in building a stronger and better tomorrow.
