Members of @wearencae.bsky.social should be proud of all they are doing to keep their students and families safe, while ICE spreads chaos in our communities.

Fear-mongering has no place in our schools.
Some CMS parents work to keep ‘envelope’ around schools with Border Patrol in NC
At one school in east Charlotte, parents started a rotation for people to watch for immigration enforcement and Border Patrol activity.

State Health Plan premiums go up in January. Without a raise, educators who are already struggling to get by will take home significantly less than they did the year before.

“SNAP benefits and school nutrition programs are interconnected lifelines for over 500,000 North Carolina children — when SNAP funds are frozen, families rely even more on our schools’ breakfast, lunch, and weekend backpack programs.”

- Superintendent of Public Instruction Maurice “Mo” Green
1.4 million North Carolinians may miss SNAP payments on Nov. 1 due to federal shutdown
Around 1.4 million North Carolinians are at risk of losing their federal food assistance payments due to the federal shutdown.

Over 112 days and counting since NC lawmakers have failed to pass a new state budget, and yet they are prioritizing redrawing congressional maps. Part 1.

📢 North Carolina ranks 43rd in the nation for teacher pay, and lawmakers still haven’t passed a state budget. Instead of rushing to redraw congressional maps this Monday, they should be focused on fully funding our public schools.

While NC lawmakers plan to redraw congressional maps on Monday, we still have NO state budget. It's 108 days late and counting. 📢 Demand action, tell your lawmakers to prioritize the people and pass a new state budget with meaningful educator raises!

A new biennial budget was due to take effect on July 1, but disagreements between the Senate and House have left the state without one. As a result, state employees—including educators—have received no pay increases, even as the cost of living and health plan premiums continue to rise.
