The event will include parent testimonies, brief remarks from Superintendent Catherine Truitt, results from the annual Civitas School Choice Poll, a legislative panel as well as musical entertainment. The event is sponsored by Black Led Schools of Choice, CarolinaCan, EdChoice, John Locke Foundation, National School Choice Week, North Carolinians for Home Education and Parents for Educational Freedom in North Carolina.
