The Editor’s Notes
Shout out to the NC SPRA Board of Directors for all of the leadership that goes into planning a convening of PIOs from North and South Carolina.
You all know our PIOs as our storytellers, but they also stabilize communications across pandemics, natural disasters, and political/economic/societal/technological change. They communicate to parents how public schools provide the best fit for their students now, and they communicate how public schools will change to continue to serve as anchor institutions in communities across North Carolina one year from now and 100 years from now.
Thank you for including me, NC SPRA. I am proud of and inspired by your collective leadership!
