Perspective | Education Matters: COVID-19’s impact on public school funding

Last week, our governor provided more guidance for schools and districts as they plan for the beginning of a school year like none other. As families make complex and sometimes heart-wrenching decisions to meet the needs of their children, we will talk to education leaders about what they are grappling with when it comes to finding and securing the resources necessary to safely open our schools in just one month. 

Guests:

Dr. Patrick Miller, Superintendent, Greene County Schools

Alan Duncan, Vice Chairman, North Carolina State Board of Education 

Mike Lee, Vice Chair, Durham Public Schools Board of Education

Public School Forum of North Carolina

Since 1986, the Public School Forum of North Carolina has been an indispensable and nonpartisan champion of better schools and the most trusted source in the state for research and analysis on vital education issues. We bring together leaders from business, education, and government to study education issues, develop ideas, seek consensus, and ultimately inform and shape education policy. We do that through research, policy work, innovative programs, advocacy, and continuing education for educators and policymakers.
