The Editor’s Notes
Between the budget and back to back debates, this week has been a powerful reminder for me to shout out and lift up and praise the amazing students, families, and educators that choose public schools. Thank you today and everyday.
This morning, Green and Morrow will participate in a discussion at the LatinxEd Summit in Winston-Salem. The debate will be moderated by 2022 N.C. Beginning Teacher of the Year Xavier Adams.
NC PTA and Public Schools First NC are hosting a candidate discussion on Saturday at 10 a.m., moderated by Jeff Tiberii. Here is more information on how to register to watch online.
Spectrum News 1 and the N.C. Institute of Political Leadership are hosting a televised debate with the candidates on Tuesday, Sept. 24 at 7 p.m.
Next month, Moore County Schools is hosting a debate at Pinecrest High School between the candidates as well. The event will take place on Oct. 14 and is expected to be televised by WRAL.
I will be traveling the rest of the month. Hannah Vinueza McClellan will be writing EdDaily. Follow me on Facebook to share in the journey.
