Judge Blocks Wake County Year-Round Schools
Today’s announcement is a victory for the group, Wake Cares, an advocacy group who fought the school board on mandatory year-round schedules.
This story has generated debate, frustration and emotion from the very beginning. There is even an online petition that was started as a grass-roots effort to drum up support for the fight against mandatory year-round schedules.
This is a story we broke on our website, NBC17.com. I encourage you to join us at 6pm and 7pm for both sides on this story.
Continuing coverage here.
Are you a parent who has been forced to put your kids on a year-round calendar? Do you have children impacted by today’s announcement?
If so, we’d welcome the chance to speak to you. Feel free to email me directly.
