I've lost count of the number of texts like these I received Monday. Those messages, which I and every student I know sent/got, inspired tomorrow's front page. If you contributed a message to this project, thank you. It's been a tough two days.

New this week: The Republican-sponsored "Parents' Bill of Rights" passes the Senate, and a bill that could make the State Board of Education elected is advancing through the House. Catch up on the latest here. #nced #ncpol https://t.co/RRRRvnVW0N

[Anna Pogarcic @ampogarcic]

Between 2021 and 2022, there was a 42% decline in enrollment in schools or programs that train teachers. That could create a big problem in 2024-25, when the number of available teachers could drop dramatically. https://t.co/D4ZYBKEJSz

[Anna Pogarcic @ampogarcic]

New this week: The Parents Bill of Rights is moving through the legislature again, NCCAT governance, school grades, and more. Catch up using our bill tracker to see what education legislation has been filed so far. #nced #ncpol https://t.co/RRRRvnWtQl

The bill would ban curriculum on gender identity, sexual activity, or sexuality in kindergarten through fourth grade and allow parents to review all materials used in class, among other things. #nced #ncpol https://t.co/coYkVrKbAK
