The North Carolina School of Science and Math in Morganton could double its student population.
The North Carolina Senate has proposed a bill to expand the study of the state's history and literature in public schools, aiming to enhance students' understanding of their cultural heritage. The proposed legislation, which has garnered bipartisan support, would require the inclusion of more comprehensive materials on North Carolina's history, literature, and notable figures in the curriculum. Proponents argue that this will foster a stronger sense of identity and pride among students, while critics express concerns about potential biases in the selection of content and the allocation of resources. The bill is currently under review by the state's education committee, with further discussions planned to address these concerns and refine the proposal.
