Forcht Bank is proud to team up with Fayette County Public Schools to sponsor the Kids' Champion award. Each month, FCPS will recognize an outstanding employee who makes a difference in students' lives and embodies five key characteristics: innovation, advocacy, empathy, knowledge, and a positive attitude.

The teacher will be recognized with the award at school and then again at the Fayette County Board of Education action meetings.

Forcht Bank upholds giving back to our community in many different ways as an integral part of our company.

"Forcht Bank understands what community involvement really means. This award signifies what truly makes this community prosperous. We appreciate those educational leaders in Fayette County Public Schools that give countless hours to educate our youth; they are our future, and we must not forget what they as educational leaders have sacrificed," said Senior Vice President and Commercial Banking Officer Larry Forester.

If you know a FCPS employee who's a Kids' Champion, you can submit a nomination for them on the FCPS website.
