The State Board of Education has approved a contract to turn over operation of Southside-Ashpole Elementary to the charter school operator Achievement for All Children. Innovative School District Superintendent Eric Hall recommended the operator for Southside-Ashpole Elementary and will collaborate in its management. It's the latest step for the state's new Innovative School District, an experiment to improve low-performing schools by handing their control away from their local school districts and giving it to an outside entity.

#Repost @thestateofthings . . . Robyn Tomlin is the first regional editor for McClatchy Carolinas. She climbed the journalism ladder quickly after a nontraditional start. Here she is in 1995 while working in The Daily Tar Heel’s office while her six-year-old son, Andrew Hackley, sits nearby: It was crazy. I didn't sleep. I probably averaged about three hours sleep a night. I would study all night, go to school in the morning, and then the afternoons and evenings were around @dailytarheel. A lot of nights he would actually be in The Daily Tar Heel office, which is not the place you want your six year old child around a bunch of college students. He used to walk around with a thing of sticky notes doing tickets for people saying obscenities.. I was like this does not make me mother of the year. 📷 courtesy of Robyn Tomlin #journalism #mcclatchy #northcarolina #wuncphotos
Sage Decker, an Army veteran with 16 years of experience fighting wildfires, leads a training session put on by Team Rubicon and the Bureau of Land Management. The Bureau of Land Management has partnered with Team Rubicon - a veterans group - to train former service members to fight wildfires. Veterans who complete the Team Rubicon-BLM course earn their Wildland Firefighter Type II certification, allowing them to mobilize to assist federal agencies in responding to fire and to be paid as firefighters.
