What We Do

The Public School Forum of North Carolina serves as a nonpartisan resource and convener for North Carolina’s public education stakeholders. The Forum provides evidence-driven, fact-based education policy analysis and research tools, advocates to lawmakers across the state and works to engage and inform North Carolina residents. We have one bias: We believe in the fundamental value of public education and the central role it plays in our society.
