To really support our teachers, it’s time to walk the walk instead of just talking the talk — and WakeEd Partnership is doing exactly that!

Thank you to NC Supreme Court Justice Anita Earls for visiting Tools4Schools today! She volunteered in our free classroom supply store, met with teachers, and heard firsthand about the growing gap between school funding and real classroom needs. Since opening in 2022, Tools4Schools has distributed $2M in supplies to @WCPSS educators. #WakeEd #Tools4Schools #WCPSS #PublicEducation

"Today’s Leandro decision is disappointing—but not surprising. The Court ruled on process—not whether students are getting what they need. What hasn’t changed is the need to better support teachers, strengthen schools, and ensure every student has the opportunity to succeed." - Keith Poston, President, WakeEd Partnership

Big thanks to @FleetFeetRal & Morrisville 👟 Donating cases of new track spikes for @WCPSS student-athletes—we’re glad to help get them to local programs. And congrats on 20 years in Raleigh! #WakeEd #WCPSS #FleetFeet

Milestone moment 🎉 Since opening in 2022, Tools4Schools has provided $2M in free classroom supplies, supporting 5,886 educators with teachers returning again and again—accounting for 16,700 shopping visits across Wake County. That’s community support in action. 💙 wakeed.org/tools4schools/ #Tools4Schools #WakeEd #SupportTeachers

TRUTH WINS: A couple years ago, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) unfairly placed Moms for Liberty Wake County on its “Hate Map,” labeling the chapter an “antigovernment extremist” group. Why? Because parents dared to speak up—challenging sexually explicit books in schools, pushing back against “woke” curricula, and asking to focus on academics over agendas. This smear was used to discredit parents and even shaped how federal agencies viewed local advocacy. But on October 3, 2025, FBI Director Kash Patel announced the agency has CUT ALL TIES with the SPLC, rejecting its “Hate Map” as unreliable and defamatory. This is a huge victory for parental rights advocates everywhere. The record is set straight: Moms for Liberty stands for protecting children and giving parents a voice. @M4LWakeNC @PavementEducat1 @RaleighGOP @REVWUTRUTH @WCPSS @HeagartyWCBOE @Mashburn4NC @nckhui @APDillon_ @mamabear1245 @ResoluteMama @HattieMags @BrookeWeiss @4LifeEducator @Saorsa1776 @ncspeakerhall #nced #wcpss #parentalrights #wakeed

The Wake County school system is blaming this summer’s federal funding freeze for delaying the return of a tutoring program that helps young students improve their reading skills. “I’ve never doubted the Wake County Public School System’s commitment to do reading interventions for students who need it,” WakeEd President Keith Poston said. “It’s a priority for the school district. It’s a priority for WakeEd Partnership.” newsobserver.com/news/local/…
