The ask: a standing discount for school staff. It costs you nothing, and you can set it up this week.
Forsyth County Schools runs an Employee Discount Program covering restaurants, home improvement, child care, auto, travel, wellness, and retail. Businesses set their own offers and terms. Most simply ask to see an educator badge or a recent pay stub.
What it looks like in practice.
A restaurant on Tribble Gap Road offers 15% off for educators year-round with an educator badge. A dealership in the program provides special pricing to staff and sends a $500 check to the employee's school with each purchase. The range is wide, and you decide where you land in it.
What you get:
Access to South Forsyth Middle School's staff — approximately 100 employees, including 76 teachers — who live and shop within a few miles of this building A listing in the district-wide Employee Discount Program, visible to employees across all 43 Forsyth County schools Recognition as an SFMS Partner Connect partner, including your name on our partner page Repeat local customers, which is the part that actually matters What it costs: nothing. No donation, no volunteer hours, no campus visit.
Why we're asking. Our staff works long days for a community that asks a great deal of them. A discount is a small, concrete way to say that's noticed — and it's a real contribution to our school even in a year when a donation isn't possible.
How to start: respond with the discount you'd like to offer and your business contact information. We'll connect you with the district program and add you to our partner page.
