From the Executive Director
Greetings from NCCAT! I wanted to let you know about some current NCCAT efforts and what is ahead.
First, we are extremely thankful for your support and the General Assembly action to return NCCAT to recurring status in the state budget. It is a vital step in NCCAT moving forward and continuing to provide high-quality professional development for the teachers of North Carolina.
