Debra Moore, an advanced marketing and entrepreneurship teacher at South Forsyth High in Cummings, was honored by the state Department of Education for making a positive impact in the lives of her students.
Georgia Superintendent John Barge recently presented Moore with the Fountain Award, named after Monty Fountain, a teacher Barge has credited with helping him and other students.
In addition to teaching marketing and entrepreneurship, Moore has served as the school’s DECA advisor for 19 years. One of Moore’s former students, Jordan Cushman, nominated her for the Fountain Award.
“Of all the things I learned in high school, what I learned from Mrs. Moore helped me the most as I studied in business school and as I began work in the real world,” said Cushman, who graduated from Brigham Young University and now works at Google in business development, sales and marketing.
