Capitalizing on Charter School Report

posted on

Lindalyn Kakadelis took the fall education tour to Rutherford and Wilkes counties last week. At each stop, the NC Education Alliance’s new policy report and parents guide on charter schools are distributed. The policy report has also been mailed to members of the General Assembly and all candidates. In recent weeks, Donna Martinez has used NBC 17’s “At Issue” to ask General Assembly candidates whether they support or oppose lifting the cap on charters. Sunday’s show features Superintendent of Public Instruction candidates Bill Fletcher and June Atkinson. The show airs at 11 a.m.
