Episode notes

The Trump administration announced Friday that it will release the remaining portion of nearly $7 billion in federal education funding that had been under review. Last week, $1.3 billion was released for after-school programs, and now the rest of the funds are being made available. The decision ends weeks of uncertainty for schools nationwide.

Keith Poston, Executive Director of the WakeEd Partnership, joined Jeff Hamlin to discuss what this development means for educators and students in North Carolina.
