Welcome to the BSHS Drama Department!

Elizabeth Fortenberry, Theatre Program Director

Mrs. Fortenberry is currently serving as Boiling Springs High School’s new theatre director. She began her teaching career in 2015 but became part of the Bulldog family in 2023. For the first nine years of her teaching career, Mrs. Fortenberry served as a Secondary Social Studies Teacher. After seeing the need to nurture student talent and grow the program from the ground up, Mrs. Fortenberry decided to make the switch.

Mrs. Fortenberry grew up in Gastonia, NC but later moved to Greenville, NC where she attended East Carolina University. At ECU, she double-majored in Secondary Social Studies Education and History. In 2018, Mrs. Fortenberry got married to her husband, Angus, and in 2021, had their son, Axl.

Outside of school, you may find Mrs. Fortenberry building legos with her son or reading a book. When the weather is warm and sunny, she likes to go outside and work in the yard. If not at home, you may find Mrs. Fortenberry at a concert or shopping at one of her favorite stores: Target, Hobby Lobby, Home Goods and Barnes & Noble.
