Azzhole, are you saying the future of our nation should be uneducated? Teachers work with the best sources they have, most of the time paying for supplies out of their own pockets. I think parents should take the initiative and be their children's primary educator but this just isn't the case most of the times, so respect teachers!

Good to see he is continuing some of the accomplishments of the previous governor and not falling back to the failures of the Democrats.

Gov. Roy Cooper announced Monday his plan to raise North Carolina teacher pay to first in Southeast in three years. Cooper's plan would bring teacher pay to the national average in five years. Teachers would receive a 5-percent raise this year and then another 5-percent next year. "These aren't just investments in our teachers, they are lasting investments in our economy and in our own children's future," said Cooper. "Education is part of North Carolina's legacy, but recently we've fallen behind. My proposal is a serious, multi-year increase in teacher salaries that will get us to the national average so we can show our teachers the respect they deserve." Cooper's plan would have the average teacher salary at more than $52,000 in 2017-2018. That average is proposed to be at $55,000 in 2018-2019. Teachers would also see an annual stipend of $150. Cooper's proposal is included in his upcoming budget that will be presented to the legislature. http://wjhl.com/2017/02/20/...acher-pay/
