A hold harmless provision is more than warranted, same for school perf. grades. Our schools and Ss need more time to fully recover from the pandemic!—State budget could cost some NC principals thousands of dollars in pay this year https://t.co/JaUYih5uEE #TeamUCPS @UCPSNC

[Dr. Helen Gross @DrHelenGross1]

NC Principals: Are you aware that NC eliminated the best 2/3 years for growth from your pay level? Your pay will now change each January based on previous year test results, impacting pay up to 20k. This is a tragic strategy for retention. @NCPrincipals @NCASAtweets @ncascd

Spent time helping to #clearthelist for #teachertwitter this weekend but here are a few things we know about #teacherpay: ✏️ The way to attract & keep the best educators is to pay them fairly. 📚 Educators' salaries must reflect the complex challenges of the teaching profession.
