Wake Forest University, Winston-Salem State University, North Carolina School of the Arts, Salem College, Piedmont Baptist College, and Winston-Salem Bible College. Private and Parochial schools also make up a significant portion of Winston-Salem’s educational establishment. Until 2001 Winston-Salem was home to Bishop McGuinness Catholic High School (now in Kernersville, N.C.), one of only 3 Catholic High Schools in North Carolina. Catholic elementary schools include St. Leo The Great and Our Lady of Mercy (which now resides on the same location as the original Bishop McGuinness). Forsyth Country Day School and Summit School are the preeminent secular private schools in the city.
