School Choice
FWCS is proud of its policy that allows students to attend any school in the district, based on space availability and racial balance. While all students are automatically assigned to a school in their attendance area, you may choose to enroll your child in a magnet school, a high school Program of Study, or a school outside the assigned attendance area.

New Tech @ Wayne
"Every student deserves this chance - to be taught critical thinking skills, to work with others (collaboration), to use technology as a tool, to work on fine-tuning oral and written communication skills, to understand what it means to have a strong work ethic, and to be able to apply what they learn to the real world. We are preparing students for the 21st century....how is that not good for every student?" Liz Bryan, Director, New Tech @ Wayne
