Commented on Republican Party Begins Sanitizing ItselfTo see how effective the Victory Committee has been just look at the results. Most of the supported candidates have not turned out well. Look at our City Council. Look at our school board. Now we have a proposed new member for the County Commission whose claim to fame is running a golf tournament but a disaster as a leader in the republican party. The Executive Committee just appointed an interim member for the School Board that has a past record of being a teacher in leu of a person who has had management experience. So, we continue to have a rotten school system, shrinking population in our county, no growth direction, missed opportunities like our airport and the Southern part of our county development. The list goes on. Change the method, change the results. But we keep doing the thing of insanity. (Doing the same thing over and over expecting different results.)

MONEY IS AVAILABLE FOR UNDERSERVED STUDENTS.
The 2023 Appropriations Act Expands Eligibility for the Opportunity Scholarship Program On October 3, 2023, the North Carolina State Budget (House Bill 259) became law. The new law authorizes several changes to the State’s Opportunity Scholarship Program, which will begin with the 2024-2025 school year. Changes for the 2024-2025 school year include: Removal of the income cap for families to receive the scholarship; now all North Carolina students in kindergarten through 12th grade will be eligible for the Scholarship regardless of income. Prior public school enrollment is no longer a requirement for eligibility for the scholarship. A student’s scholarship amount will be based on household income. Scholarship amounts will range from approximately $3,000 to approximately $7,000. The Opportunity Scholarship application for the 2024-2025 school year will open on February 1, 2024. Families must apply by March 1 to receive priority consideration
