When we first started looking at NC as a possible relocation site, I did a lot of research into the public school system. We were really impressed by the school system and the programs that they have to offer. The system also seemed to do a really great job at integrating the student population and making poorer schools more attractive to a wide variety of students through inovative programming. Now, we have learned that a new school board is looking to undo some of these great programs and reverse the integration that has happened in the schools.
Here is a great video from the The Colbert Report. Glad to see this is getting national attention.
