North Carolina's Strategic Plan for Educational Excellence
The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction and the State Board of Education are developing a transformative Strategic Plan to make North Carolina's public schools the best in the nation.
About the Plan
Achieving Educational Excellence is our strategic vision for North Carolina public schools from 2025-2030. This comprehensive plan emerged from extensive community engagement, including:
- Superintendent Green's "Mo Wants to Know" listening tour across all eight regions of North Carolina
- Thousands of online submissions from educators, families, and community members
- Months of collaborative planning sessions with education stakeholders
The draft plan was presented to the State Board of Education on June 4, 2025, and is now open for feedback as we work to refine and strengthen it with input from partners statewide.
