Recapping the amazing day we had on Wednesday. The #TOYPOY cohorts engaged in a book study to rethink different elements of school including the concept of school, technology in schools, parent engagement, and the profession at large. An amazing few days to connect and learn from

NC Superintendent Catherine Truitt kicking off the NC PractitionerNetwork meeting this morning with powerful remarks. “Educators can help ground research in the reality of the classroom… you are bridging the gap between theory and practice.”

Had an amazing morning at the NC Practitioner Network- a partnership between NC Public Schools and universities to ground research in the realities of the classroom. Through this partnership, researchers and educators are cocreating and testing interventions to better serve all

🚍 The 2024-25 school year is here, and that means school buses are back on the roads! Watch this important video from NCDOT to learn when traffic must stop for school buses: youtu.be/smc0miJxvOs. Remember: passing a stopped bus can cost you $500 and 5 points on your license.

Welcome back to school students, families and educators! Here's to a year of learning, health and joy. I look forward to witnessing the remarkable progress and milestones each of you will achieve!

Today we celebrate our school bus drivers. Sometimes you are the first smiling adult students see each morning and the last before they get home. Thank you for your commitment to the safety of our students. (Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, New Hanover County Schools, Vance County Schools, Watauga County Schools)

We know one of the biggest barriers to college admissions is the college application process. #NCCollegeConnect is an exciting, new initiative that will increase access to higher education by simplifying the application process for students across the state. #nced
