The NC Education & Innovation Tour Coming to Surry County Schools
Mark
Johnson to Visit Friday on Listening Tour
Mark
Johnson, the NC Superintendent of Public Instruction, will visit Surry County on
Friday as part of his NC Education & Innovation Tour. Earlier this year,
Johnson pledged to conduct a listening tour to hear directly from educators,
parents, and community leaders across North Carolina.
“The Surry County
School District is an example of a high performing school system in one of
North Carolina’s more rural counties” said Johnson. “Surry County has worked diligently to create a culture of success for
all students. I look forward to hearing from Surry County educators, students,
and stakeholders about the keys to their success.”
Johnson will tour
Meadowview Magnet Middle School and interact with a student panel and Surry County
Board of Education members. Johnson also will visit East Surry High School to
meet with students and teachers and to learn more about the college-going
culture of the school.
