  • Qualified educators & principals

  • Full academic & health support

  • Early education programs (birth to age 5, including Pre-K)

  • Extracurricular & enrichment activities

  • Job training & college preparation

North Carolina high school students voice the urgent need for fair access to educational opportunties.
