The 2023 Duck Dive for Education is here!

Adopt a duck for $10 for a chance to win $10,000

and support school grants.

How does the

Duck Dive work?


The Duck Dive is a raffle. When you adopt a duck for $10 you will be assigned a duck number. The list of duck numbers will be posted at forsyth.k12.ga.us/duck by March 30 so you know your assigned duck number before the raffle drawing. 


On March 31, all numbered ducks will place in a "pond". At 1 pm one lucky duck will be drawn and the winner will win $10,000. 


Watch the drawing live at YouTube.com/ForsythCountySchools

We had a quacktastic Valentine's Day! The Duck surprised our 43 principals with $1,400 checks for their schools. That's over $60,000 from the FC Education Foundation, thanks to a generous donation from Publix.
