Can North Carolina Meet the Rising Demand for Diverse Educational Options?

New surveys of micro and private school leaders reveal both urgent challenges and exciting opportunities for expanding North Carolina’s educational capacity.

Join us at the Carolina Country Club from 5:30–7:30pm for an evening of insights and discussion on North Carolina’s education policy and school choice.
