A member of the Craven County Board of Education has raised concerns about both the transparency of the school system administration and the number of current vacancies among teachers and other staff.
In a March 25 Facebook post, District 5 Board member Kelli Muse made public a series of text messages between herself and Craven County Schools Superintendent Meghan Doyle. In her texts to Doyle, Muse asks why the Board members do not have access to all district meetings, such as principals’ meetings.
“I would like that setup, please. There are times I would like to sit in. Thanks. Can you let me know when that can be accomplished,” wrote Muse.
A controversy surrounding Craven County Board of Education members having access to the school system’s principals’ meetings has seemingly been settled.
During their April 13 work session, the Board reached a consensus that going forward, the current principal of the year will update the board monthly with information from those meetings.
The issue was raised last month by BOE member Kelli Muse.
In a March 25 Facebook post, Muse made public a series of texts between herself and Superintendent Meghan Doyle. In her texts to Doyle, Muse asked why the Board members do not have access to all district meetings, such as principals’ meetings.
Onslow County Schools are set to receive further assistance as part of more covid relief efforts after the North Carolina General Assembly appropriated $1.6 billion in funding for NC Public Schools last week.
District 6 Senator Michael Lazzara announced in an email to The Daily News that Onslow County Schools are eligible for up to $24,361,635 of assistance, while Jones County is eligible for up to $1,590,296.
