I graduated from South Forsyth High School and then continued my education and graduated from Piedmont College. I am married to my wonderful husband, Sean, and we have three amazing children. I am looking forward to another great year here at Sawnee!

     Mrs Calhoun Calhoun, Donna

    This is my 16th year teaching in GA. I taught 12 years in Fulton County and this will be my fourth year in Forsyth. I enjoy watching the growth that all of my students make in first grade. I think that may be why it is my favorite grade to teach!

    I attended Sawnee as a child and know what a wonderful place it is to begin your education. I graduated from Gainesville State College in 2012. This will be my sixth year teaching. Through my experiences I have found every child is unique and special in their own way. My husband and I have a son and a daughter. We enjoy living and working in the Sawnee community. I can not wait to meet my students!
