Dear Champions,
The 2026-27 school year is underway, and North Carolina’s public schools are building on historic momentum.

Students have set a graduation record for the second consecutive year, academic results are improving across student groups, and new survey data shows encouraging progress in student safety, well-being and belonging. This fall, we’re sharing three timely resources to help you tell that story:
Fall 2026 Toolkit Resources
Each toolkit includes key messages, data points, sample social media content, visual suggestions and practical tips. We invite you to choose the messages that resonate most, personalize them in your own voice and share them with your friends, families, colleagues and communities.
Thank you for helping North Carolinians celebrate and elevate the excellence in our public schools.
Champion Action Log
Remember, each Champion Action you take helps shape the narrative of public education in North Carolina!
You can bookmark this Champion Action Submission Form to log the Actions you take throughout the year. The information you share helps us track what Champions are doing across the state, and lift up stories worth amplifying.
Champions who complete the “Interest & Capacity” Survey, attend at least one training webinar, and use a toolkit resource for outreach are “Learning Champions” - on their way to being an “Active Champion” and ultimately a “Certified Champion!”
For a refresher on the engagement levels and criteria, revisit slides 19-30 of the Network Launch Webinar.
