In a 7-2 vote, the Wake County Public School System Board of Education voted Thursday to move to keep students in remote-only classes until mid-February.
Board members made the decision after hearing passionate cries from employees and school administrators that shared their concern over the increasing positive COVID-19 cases as well as student grades. Staffing continues to be an issue as the school board system looks to hire more substitute teachers.
The motion was opposed by board members Roxie Cash and Karen Carter who fought tirelessly to have students and staff back in the classroom. Carter questioned the efficacy of a survey issued to teachers and elementary school principals.
