Veteran teachers looking at raises of $125/year for the next two years in the Senate budget won't be too happy to learn that State Superintendent @CTruittNCDPI's Chief of Staff recently got a raise of $32,250 (24% increase over last year's salary).

There’s this guy on TikTok who does nursery rhymes in the style of his favourite bands and the production standards are insane. This Mumford and Sons style rendition of You Are My Sunshine is genuinely as good as a song they would release

🚲 Yesterday, students from 19 WCPSS schools took part in National Walk, Bike, and Roll to School Day! One of its many goals is to increase community awareness of safe walking and biking routes to school. Which schools participated? > https://t.co/m1PdaKTdNo #BikeRolltoSchoolDay

I have a Kinder friend that I help walk in the hallway so he doesn't run. We usually walk hand in hand. Today, we came out my door and I said, "Can I hold your hand?" Without missing a beat, he looks at me and says, "No, you're good!" and keeps on walking! 😊

@esfletcher “Sherrif” or is it “sheriff”???? Or something else?! The world may never know! And by “world” I mean me!

What’s a valid reason for North Carolina teachers to take personal days? New law doesn’t explain. Teachers can now take personal leave w/out losing pay to hire a substitute. But they need to give a reason or be charged more than $100. #nced #ncpol https://t.co/ICdvH0XCsy
