The end of the first marking period comes with sad news for some students: beloved Family and Consumer Science teacher and Student Service Learning coordinator Laura Fike is leaving Sherwood.

This decision was made after her husband found a job in Garrett County, Maryland, which is where most of their families live. She will begin to look for another teaching job once settled.

“I have loved my five years here at Sherwood. I am very sad to go but also happy and excited about our new adventure. I will be back to visit often and look forward to seeing everyone then,” said Fike.
