Education
WSSU athletes, local business professionals and others welcome students at Ashley
On Monday, Aug. 26, students across the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County School District returned to the classroom as summer vacation officially came to a close with the first day of school. While the first day of school is always exciting, students at Ashley Academy for Cultural and Global Studies had a little extra excitement as they received words of encouragement from dozens of people from all walks of life as they entered the building.
