Is our education system outdated by more than a century?  Are we doing enough to prepare our kids for future jobs and providing enough skilled workers for all the companies that want to come to North Carolina?  What about all the high-stakes testing? 

We tackle those questions this week with Superintendent of Public Instruction Catherine Truitt and N.C. Chamber CEO Gary Salamido. They are working together to shake up education with some big ideas and admittedly some ideas that will raise the blood pressure of those who are nervous about changing institutions like public education.  It’s a fascinating discussion about the future of education.
