Local Group Presses for School Choice in North Carolina’s 2nd-Largest District
RALEIGH – Is Wake County’s student assignment plan working in the best interests of student achievement? Not according to the group Assignment By Choice. Organized in the fall of 2002, the group was formed with the support of elected officials in Cary, Garner, and Apex. The group is trying to put pressure on the Wake County school system — the second-largest in the state — to end forced busing and replace it with parental choice with the public schools.
