The high school principal of a private
parochial school in south Forsyth has
been given a larger role in the education
of its students.
Edward J. Lindekugel was named
headmaster of Pinecrest Academy,
which serves students in preK3 through
12th grade on Peachtree Parkway. He
will continue his role as principal of the
high school.
“I’m looking forward to continuing
service to the students
of Pinecrest Academy
and working collabora
tively with our presi
dent, Fr. David Steffy,”
Lindekugel said. “He’s
a great guy who is pro
viding the school with
the solid foundation it
needs to continue to
grow and thrive.”
Lindekugel
He said as headmaster, he will work
with the lower and middle school prin
cipals to “make sure our visions are
aligned and that we are executing our
mission and purpose statement. Our
purpose statement is to form Christian
servant leaders who will transform
society.”
Now tasked with coordinating the
academic programming for the entire
about 840-student school, Lindekugel
said he wants to continue delivering
“excellent academic programs and
improve our ability to provide personal
attention to each student. To help them
maximize their gifts.”
Lindekugel joined Pinecrest in 2008
and worked as an administrator in both
the middle and high schools before
becoming high school principal in 2011.

Big Creek Greenway
work continues
Plan is to
reach Sawnee
Mountain

It has already been a busy
year for improvements on the
Big Creek Greenway, but
there is still plenty to be done.
The greenway, a 7-mile
bike and pedestrian path that
originally opened in 2009,
starts near McFarland
Parkway and spans to
Bethelview Road. For now.
Eventually the plan is to more
than double the path’s length
and reach Sawnee Mountain.
“The trail will go from the
Sawnee Mountain Preserve
and will traverse the county
all the way down to
McFarland Parkway trail
head,” Deputy County
Manager Tim Merritt said.
“The total length is going to
be about 16-17 miles at that
point.”
The greenway features a
12-foot wide improved sur
face, concrete and boardwalk,
with 4-foot shoulders on both
sides.
