- GOP leaders say the NC budget offers ‘historic’ raises. A top education panel says it’s not enough.
North Carolina's General Assembly passed a $34 billion budget offering 8% average teacher raises over two years, but the Blue Ribbon Commission on Public Education criticized it as insufficient. The commission highlighted stagnant salaries for veteran teachers and a high attrition rate, with over 9,100 teachers leaving public schools in 2024-25.
