Fields running for county commissioner

Kendall Fields was born and raised in Forsyth County, and now he wants to make a change here. This year he is running for the first time ever for the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners.
When he graduated from Mount Tabor High School in 2009, Fields moved to attend college to receive his bachelors and masters degrees. Once he moved back to Winston Salem after college, he began working at Parkland High School. This will be his 10th year teaching there. Fields currently teaches economics and personal finance. He is also chair of the Social Studies Department. Most of his career, Fields taught Civic Literacy.
With his extensive knowledge of the county, his experience with schools in the district and his desire to become politically involved, Fields believes he would be a good candidate for one of the three seats opening up on the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners.
“I knew that I always wanted to get more politically involved as I got older and it kind of hit a point where I said, ‘You’ve gotten older, you have to start somewhere,’” Fields shared. For more, see the Saturday-Sunday, January 6 & 7, 2024 edition.
