CV: I think you are probably right. My guess is that the other community schools on the southside of the river aren't safe for so long either.

VZ, with Snowden gone, the Deep State within our school system has now probably put a target on the back of Bath Elementary.

Stan: It's the World Economic Forum held annually in Davos, Switzerland. A few years ago, they made that video with young actors touting, "You will own nothing and be happy." They want a world carbon tax and wish to force people to use public transportation. Oh yeah, they think it's not good for us regular folks to eat meat; grasshoppers would be better. National borders? Who needs that? Live outside a population center - Should not be allowed according to them. That's just a bit of it. There are hundreds of pages of UN Bull $#!T these elitists want to force on us ordinary peasants of the world.

When will we be getting these ICE teams in eastern NC? We need immigration law enforcement here, too.

Despite the fact that most of the commenters on this site seem to have an understanding of the successes accomplished at S.W. Snowden School, there is still some incorrect information being told as truth within the community as a whole. Allow me to present the official record:

The truth is Snowden School has made an impressive comeback from the damage brought about by the time of remote learning during the covid scare. While all schools had big challenges during this episode, I believe rural schools like Snowden were disproportionally harmed during that time.

Over the last three years the school has been making steady progress. This past year Snowden made tremendous gains. The school grade increased by over eight points. This spike upward moved the school up an entire letter grade. In the last year as a school Snowden strongly returned to its former solid status. Last year, Snowden was one of the two Beaufort County schools that exceeded expectations, and they exceeded expectations more than any other school in our county.

We should all commend the students and staff of S.W. Snowden for their extraordinary accomplishments. I was amazed and honored to be able to see what was done at Snowden in its last year as a Beaufort County School. We should all be proud of the students, staff, and community of Aurora and Richland Township. I know I am.

Since Stein is a lawyer and former state Attorney General, one would have thought he would have been familiar with the definitions of "immigrant" and of "illegal alien" in the United States Code (federal statutory law). The term "immigrant" only applies to someone who is properly going through the immigration process beginning with an application to come to America as an immigrant. It does not apply to those who sneak across the border or overstay a tourist or other visa. Our immigration statutes clearly define those who come or stay illegally as "illegal aliens". Read the law, governor, before making a fool of yourself.

Josh Stein is as radical as AOC, Bernie Saunders, Jasmine Crockett, etc. I wonder if he shortened the family name from FRANKENstein.

JV: You're right. WEF influence runs deep and wide and should not be underestimated.

Need to start holding these judges responsible for all the deaths and harm caused by their rulings. If an illegal invader driving a 18 wheeler kills someone because of this ruling, the judges should be charged with accessory to murder. All the illegal invaders the judge ordered released any crime they commit the judge should also be charged with that crime since they are the reason the invader is free.

JB Pritzker, the idiot governor of Illinois, would make for a perfect Democratic Socialist candidate for President

Steve Bannon, a major MAGA leader, has declared that "Whatley is NOT MAGA" and that he is running so poorly in North Carolina because MAGA voters have no enthusiasm for him.

The Left will never possess the intellectual acuity to right the environment, and become the good stewards as we are all called to be, because, simply, they do not understand it.
