We’re excited to launch our series of candidate town halls for the 2024 Election. Please plan to join us to meet the candidates and hear their views on public charter schools.
Each of our town halls will be conducted over Zoom, with Donna King serving as the moderator. A veteran journalist, she is currently the editor-in-chief of Carolina Journal.
We are continuing to try and schedule time with candidates for Governor (who appoints all members of the State Board of Education), Lieutenant Governor (who sits on the State Board of Education), State Treasurer (who sits on the State Board of Education) and State Superintendent of Public Instruction (who oversees the state’s public schools at the Department of Public Instruction and sits on the State Board of Education as a non-voting member and its chief administrative officer).
These offices are critical to the success and sustainability of public charter schools in our state! Please join us to learn more about the candidates seeking these offices.
As a reminder, the Coalition is a non-partisan organization dedicated to protecting and promoting public charter schools. We will never endorse a political party, and it is our goal–pending candidates’ availability and willingness to participate–to offer a forum for voter education that focuses on the issues (K-12 education and charter schools) instead of ideology.
Below are the candidates who have confirmed their town hall participation. Please register in advance for each of these events.
