Wake Ed
The Wake Ed biog is devoted to discussing and answering questions about the major issues facing the Wake County school system as it undergoes historic changes. How will the new community-based school assignment system work now that the socioeconomic diversity policy has been eliminated? How will Superintendent Tony Tara lead the state's largest district through more budget cuts and possible layoffs? How will the board respond to growth and the school construction program? How will this fall's school board elections affect the district?
Wake Ed is maintained by The News & Observer's Wake schools reporter, T. Kenning Hui. While Kenning posts information and analysis on the issues, keep us posted on your suggestions, questions, tips and what you're doing to cope with the changes in Wake's schools.
