- State Board of Education warns proposed NC teacher pay plan leaves veterans behind
The North Carolina State Board of Education expressed concerns that a proposed teacher pay plan disproportionately benefits early-career teachers over veterans, with raises front-loaded for newcomers and minimal increases for those with 15–24 years of experience. The plan, costing $528 million, aims for an average 8% raise over two years, raising starting pay to $48,000 but maintaining existing pay structures for veterans.
