State Health Plan premiums go up in January. Without a raise, educators who are already struggling to get by will take home significantly less than they did the year before.
“SNAP benefits and school nutrition programs are interconnected lifelines for over 500,000 North Carolina children — when SNAP funds are frozen, families rely even more on our schools’ breakfast, lunch, and weekend backpack programs.”

- Superintendent of Public Instruction Maurice “Mo” Green

📢 North Carolina ranks 43rd in the nation for teacher pay, and lawmakers still haven’t passed a state budget. Instead of rushing to redraw congressional maps this Monday, they should be focused on fully funding our public schools.
While NC lawmakers plan to redraw congressional maps on Monday, we still have NO state budget. It's 108 days late and counting. 📢 Demand action, tell your lawmakers to prioritize the people and pass a new state budget with meaningful educator raises!

A new biennial budget was due to take effect on July 1, but disagreements between the Senate and House have left the state without one. As a result, state employees—including educators—have received no pay increases, even as the cost of living and health plan premiums continue to rise.

Today we remember the lives lost on 9/11 and honor the brave first responders who showed extraordinary courage. As educators, we reflect, we remember, and we teach the next generation about resilience and unity.
