The county was having tremendous difficulty finding hand sanitizer and wipes to purchase for the ambulance staff. A few emails and teachers were offering supplies from their classroom cupboards. Unprecedented challenge meet unbounded love! #SameDayDelivery #TogetherWeRise

Coronavirus: "Teachers, you are going to need to completely change how you teach and how you support students with very little notice and even less time"

Teachers: "Hold my coffee!"

I am blown away by the incredible work of public school teachers! https://t.co/EOJgYVpReC

Just imagine all of the new ideas, strategies, skills, and creativity being added to every educator’s toolkit now! #TogetherWeRise #NextLevel

In the end, I would rather be accused of overreacting, then fail to act and live with the overwhelming regret for what might have prevented had we only been bold. #SafetyFirst

Edenton-Chowan Schools will operate on a 2-hour delay today, February 26, 2020, due to foggy conditions this morning.

As @Dr_Rob_Jackson said this morning in Atlanta, we believe in our teachers and we believe in our students. There is no question that they can and will soar when unshackled from excuses and empowered by the belief we have in them! #NextLevel
