WS/FCS staff impacts: Galilee Missionary Baptist Church to host teacher support job fair today

Galilee Baptist Church is doing its part to uplift Winston-Salem/Forsyth County schools staff who lost their jobs on Friday as part of the RIF layoffs and cuts.

Uncertain job market greets displaced WS/FCS employees

Roughly 270 former Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools employees face bleak job prospects after the district cut 344 positions to save $18.2 million. Few comparable openings remain in nearby districts, and many may need to relocate. Affected workers qualify for just 12 weeks of unemployment benefits capped at $350 weekly under current state law.
