Lemme go pray for Durham right now because this is ridiculous. Children are suffering. I’ll leave it at that for now.

Centennial Campus MS are looking for teachers who want to #JoinOurDen through an exciting opportunity from a federal magnet school's grant. Interested? Reach out!

Infrastructure, staffing, & safety are all top priorities, how do we ensure the bottom line includes equity?
During our first Education Policy Chat, we'll be talking about all things school funding and budgets!

Senator Sydney Batch just shared that three women out of 170 #NCGA legislators have school-aged children.

Y’all… 👀 #NCed #EggsAndIssues23

An #NCed student shares that acceptance and celebration of cultures, as well as support for student ideas will lead to improved school culture. #EggsAndIssues23

Thinking back to my first year teaching when we only had a nurse on campus twice a week + a psychologist once a week.

Health + safety involves physical, emotional, + mental components. How will #NCed meet these needs for our students?

#EggsAndIssues23

Urgency for kids AND urgency for those who serve kids. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Eugenia

Chatham County Superintendent Anthony D. Jackson says that school leadership matters—he says he hasn’t seen a good school with a bad leader.

What leadership support do you long for? What support are you currently getting that’s working?

Hearing directly from Union County Public Schools superintendent Dr. Andrew Houlihan that they cannot find teachers.

Folks outside of #NCed , how are your states recruiting, retaining, and supporting educators? What ideas do you have? #EggsAndIssues23

The fact that mental health, safety, & preparation for the world are part of the top #EggsAndIssues23 issues makes my heart happy for my own kids who will be #NCed students in a few short years.

I want my kids to be safe and cared for so they can learn and be challenged.

The fact that beginning teacher pay RIGHT NOW in #NCed starts at $37,000–which is BELOW the minimum living wage of $48,346–is abysmal and heartbreaking.

When I was a first year teacher in 2012, my starting pay was $35,000. 🫠🫠🫠

The contrast of being the #1 state for business and being ranked #48 for per student funding is a challenging one. Especially when we could have fully funded public schools and an healthy business environment. #nced #EggsandIssues23

Dusting off the ol’ Twitter account for #EggsAndIssues23 –my first “professional” event since sweet Hayley Rae was born almost nine months ago! #NCed
