NC Educators on the Ballot

Grassroots Action for Public Education; Reclaiming Our Legacy

 

North Carolina has deep roots in public education, from chartering the nation’s first state university to building a PreK–12 system that was a model for the South at the end of the 20th century.

 

For generations, we led the way with investments in teacher preparation and pay, early childhood education, and access to opportunity for all students.

That legacy is in jeopardy.

NC Educators on the Ballot is a grassroots campaign to reignite a vision of strong public education in our great state and bring public schools back to priority status in both parties. 

 

Toward that goal, we are supporting teachers, public school employees and retirees across the state to run in the Republican primaries.  Will will also be showing voters of both parties how to vote for them on March 3.

If you believe in strong public schools and fair pay for educators, there’s a role for you in this movement.  

We may also be adding pro-public education Democrats to this site in the future, but our current focus is on the Republican primary elections coming up on March 3, 2026.
