Forsyth County Schools' Technology Fair Winners Announced

Dozens of Forsyth County students have earned recognition for their efforts to learn and practice on new technologies as part of Forsyth County Schools’ annual Technology Fair.

The fair, which was held on Saturday at Whitlow Elementary School in Cumming, was open to any and all students in Forsyth County between third and 12th grade. The students could participate in a project in categories such as 3D modeling, digital photography, game design, programming, robotics, technology literacy, and more.

Students competed by themselves or in a two person team against other individuals and teams in the same grade level or one grade level higher or lower than theirs.
