Student achievement in the Johnston County Schools ranks within the top twenty percent of North Carolina school districts. The district is comprised of 36 schools, including a center for academically and intellectually talented elementary students and a Middle College High School for students who are not interested in high school’s extra-curricular offerings and involvements, but whose objective is to continue their education after high school. Johnston County Schools has 27,500 students and 3,500 employees. The Johnston County Schools has an Accountability Policy that establishes very high standards for academic achievement, requires additional help for students having trouble meeting these standards, and then holds students accountable for meeting these more rigorous requirements. Since the policy was implemented 12 years ago, parents, teachers, and students have been required to sign a Student Accountability Agreement at the start of every school year. Johnston County's Student Accountability for Academic Achievement is very similar to one adopted by the North Carolina State Board of Education. Much of the state board's policy was based on the work and experiences of Johnston County.

Friends in Education Awards Friend of Education Award Laura Welch Bush Laura Welch Bush shares America's concerns about the education of our children. Through her national initiative called Ready to Read, Ready to Learn, she stresses that America's children can't wait to read. In fact, they should have a book and an adult to read with long before they start school. She urges more Americans to become teachers; discusses preparing young children for learning and school; and wants parents and other adults to have important information on child rearing and cognitive development. On September 8, 2001 Mrs. Bush launched the first National Book Festival, which featured authors from across the nation and was attended by tens of thousands of people. Three days later, on September 11, the nation experienced the worst terrorist attacks on American soil in history. Since then, Mrs. Bush has focused her energy on helping our nation, especially children, through the healing process. She encourages Americans to spend more time together as families and support the teachers who take care of their children every day in school. In her speeches and public appearances, she expresses what many Americans believe: that every human being should be treated with dignity; and that no child should be left behind in school, or in life.

The new requirement would end more than a decade of debate about strengthening graduation standards for North Carolina's high schools. Students now must pass only the state's eighth-grade tests in reading and math, in addition to meeting course requirements, to graduate. Students entering ninth grade in fall 2006 the graduating class of 2010 would be the first facing the tougher graduation rules. They would have to earn passing scores on the state's standardized end-of-course tests in English 1, algebra 1, biology, U.S. history, and civics and economics. Those students who fail on their first try would get two additional chances. If they are unable to pass on their third attempt, they could earn credit after a review of their course performance by a panel not associated with the student's school. The principal would make the final decision based on the panel's recommendation.

HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA In North Carolina, all the public educational institutions that grant baccalaureate degrees are part of the University of North Carolina. The University of North Carolina at Wilmington is one of the 16 constituent institutions of the multi-campus state university. The University of North Carolina, chartered by the N.C. General Assembly in 1789, was the first public university in the United States to open its doors and the only one to graduate students in the eighteenth century. The first class was admitted in Chapel Hill in 1795. For the next 136 years, the only campus of the University of North Carolina was at Chapel Hill. In 1877, the N.C. General Assembly began sponsoring additional institutions of higher education, diverse in origin and purpose. Five were historically black institutions, and another was founded to educate American Indians. Several were created to prepare teachers for the public schools. Others had a technological emphasis. One is a training school for performing artists. In 1931, the N.C. General Assembly redefined the University of North Carolina to include three state-supported institutions: the campus at Chapel Hill (now the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill), North Carolina State College (now North Carolina State University at Raleigh), and Woman's College (now the University of North Carolina at Greensboro). The new multi-campus university operated with one board of trustees and one president. By 1969, three additional campuses had joined the university through legislative action: the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, the University of North Carolina at Asheville, and the University of North Carolina at Wilmington.

76. ISSUE UPDATE north carolina has suspended its portfolio/video requirement. Folded CornerContext The Alaska State Board of education is poised to adopt new http://www.neaalaska.org/issue_update1.htm

ISSUE UPDATE #1: Performance-Based Licensure May 11, 2005 North Carolina has suspended its portfolio/video requirement NEA-Alaska learns from Angela Farthing, manager for North Carolina Association for Educators Center for Teaching and Learning, that NC has suspended its performance-based licensure process. Here’s the story: North Carolina began its mentored induction program for new teachers in the mid-1990s. Each new teacher is assigned a trained mentor who receives a $1,000 annual stipend from the state. In North Carolina the mentoring program is considered integral to the success of teachers in the initial licensing process. In 1997, the NC state legislature implemented the “Excellent Schools Act” which established a performance-based licensure portfolio process. Considered to be a “mini-version” of the National Board Certification process, it required each local education agency to develop a system of support for new teachers that included “interaction with a mentor, observations, evaluations, and individual growth plans for professional development to assist beginning teachers in moving from initial to career status.” One component of the professional licensing process required that a teacher complete a portfolio that included a videotaped lesson. Three years ago (effective 2003-04) the NC state legislature suspended the portfolio requirement—including submission of the video, “pending further study.” Time and cost were cited as factors for eliminating the portfolio process.

In its general charitable purposes, a community foundation is much like a private foundation; its funds, however, are derived from many donors rather than a single source, as is usually the case with private foundations. Further, community foundations are usually classified under the tax code as public charities and therefore are subject to different rules and regulations than those which govern private foundations.

From the beginning, North Carolina Central University has declared its purpose to be the development in young men and women of the character and sound academic training requisite for real service to the nation.

Download PDF Version Executive Summary Acknowledgments ... The National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education Page 13 of 21 NORTH CAROLINA Governance North Carolina has an unusual governance structure, combining segmental governance with local boards and statewide planning. The University of North Carolina Board of Governors is the statewide governing board for all the public four-year institutions, and it also has statutory responsibility for statewide planning, policy work, and data collection for all higher education, including the public community colleges and private four-year institutions. Each of the four-year public campuses also has a local governing board. The State Board of Community Colleges is the governing board for the 58 public community colleges. Among the community colleges, some are designated as public junior colleges and others as industrial education centers, which focus on technical and vocational education. All the junior colleges have associate degree, diploma, certificate, and transition programs. In fall 2000, these programs enrolled 170,204 students; of these, 38,369 were in associate degree programs (A.A., A.S., A.F.A.). As described below, the associate degree programs are articulated with the four-year institutions and are considered the 2/4 transfer curriculum within the community colleges, although students enrolled in other programs may also be eligible to transfer to four-year institutions. Enrollment Planning North Carolina’s population is expected to grow by 13% in the first decade of this century, but the projection for growth in the school-age population is closer to 20%. The state has also placed a priority on increasing the percentage of residents who attend college. To meet the anticipated enrollment demand, the state is undertaking initiatives that include strengthening the community college transfer function.
