This afternoon, the NC Department of Public Instruction and State Board of Education will honor schools and school districts that graduated a high percentage of its students. I think my invitation got lost in the mail.
According to the press release,
Lt. Governor Walter Dalton, State Superintendent June Atkinson and State Board of Education Chairman Bill Harrison along with other staff and dignitaries will recognize local school districts and high schools achieving the state’s top graduation rates at a luncheon event.
