I know I probably should have been working the polls, but our youngest was sick on Sunday when her siblings got to go to the Fair and Mom is on a work trip. Her fever finally broke yesterday...plus, I wouldn't trade four years as President if it meant missing the joy this 7 year old experienced this morning! #family #ncstatefair #timeisshort

How northwest Wake County school board candidates differ on their top priorities. Jacob Arthur, Amita Gupta and Maddie Segal are running for the District 7 seat being vacated by Chris Heagarty. newsobserver.com/news/politi… #ncpol #nced #wcpss
The League of Women Voters candidate forum is now available to watch!
Thank you to the League of Women Voters for giving voters an opportunity to hear directly from the candidates for Wake County School Board District 7.
I encourage you to watch, compare our answers, and learn more about my priorities for our schools: literacy, school maintenance, responsible budgeting, and several other topics.

Let's just be honest - the majority of this school board do not prioritize student/staff safety. That's not just me saying that, it's their own actions... weapons in schools (including the loss of life), chaos at this football game...not to mention the HUNDREDS, of fire code violations that have not been addressed in years.
But don't fear, they're going to embed "reconciliation practices" into everything in an a effort to reduce suspension rates...🙄
We will never know the true security failures of the Millbrook vs. Rolesville brawls. School safety plans are not part of public records and boards use this exemption for closed-door meetings. I might be too hard on the district, but the videos I’ve seen show chaos. The metal detectors were a waste of money given that students jumped the fences.
Maybe #WCPSS should partner with Wake Technical Community College to help fill HVAC maintenance positions 🤷🏻♂️

$800 million in deferred maintenance does have a real impact on learning! #wcpss #District7 #maintenance #wakepol

There are questions that need to answered...
When will Wake County schools get HVAC issues fixed? The timeline for its long-term plan. Veronica Hill, the chief of facilities and operations, said she'll have a long-term strategy to present in December on addressing the HVAC situation. newsobserver.com/news/local/… #nced #wcpss
