A leading voice For North Carolina students, families, and public schools
By working with parents, families, and community groups, NCAE is leading a movement to build excellent public schools that will nourish the minds of future generations and center public schools as the heart of our communities. NCAE is an association of teachers and school employees, but every single one of us is in this because we believe in the future of our youngest generation.
NCAE is leading a movement TO CREATE EXCELLENT PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Public schools are where we teach our children the basics of reading and math, nurture their curiosity, and prepare them with important life skills, so that they can be ready for what’s to come. From the mountains to the coast, North Carolinians love their public schools and only together, can we strengthen our public schools for the next generation and generations to come.

Let's GET REAL
We need to prepare our students for a future we cannot even imagine yet
Let's MAKE CHANGE
Students in our schools today need a solid foundation of the basics of reading and math, but we also need to encourage their curiosity in science, business, and the world around us so we can nurture the problem-solvers, the builders, and leaders of the future. We don’t know what the world will look like in 10, 20 or 30 years from now, but the vast majority of our young people go to public schools today. We owe it to them to prepare them for what’s to come.
