NC charter school has been delayed yet again. When it now plans to open in Chatham.

A new charter school focused on helping students learn job skills is now scheduled to open in Chatham County in 2029 — five years after it was first approved. The N.C. Charter Schools Review Board voted 7-2 on Monday to approve Granite Charter Academy’s request to delay its opening until fall 2029 . School leaders said the delay will give them time to construct a campus in Pittsboro that would eventually allow them to serve 1,500 K-12 students. “Seeing the development in the area, I’m sure Chatham County is excited to have a school that they’re not running a bond package on,” said Lindalyn Kakadelis, a member of the Review Board. But some Review Board members raised concerns about allowing such a long delay. Granite was originally approved by the Review Board in 2024 with a scheduled opening this school year. Staff in the Office of Charter Schools previously had approved Granite’s request to delay opening until 2027. On Monday, the school sought an additional two-year delay. “I do believe it’s a great endeavor and very purposeful and needed, but we’d be approving an application that’s five years removed from all the original intent,” said Review Board member Rita Haire,

Pittsboro ethics case tests the line between hard questioning and misconduct

Pittsboro, NC – When Pittsboro commissioners take up allegations of ethics violations against Commissioner John Bonitz tonight, they will confront two questions that should not be collapsed into one: whether Bonitz should vote on a judgment of his own conduct, and whether the evidence establishes that he violated any of seven cited provisions of the town’s Code of Ethics and Conduct.

“We’re a Work In Progress”: Dawn Staley Delivers Her Verdict After South Carolina Defeats UNC By 45 Points

Dawn Staley’s team had just beaten a ranked North Carolina team by 45 points, and the coach still sounded like her season was only getting started. The No. 1 Gamecocks won 84-39 on Sunday at the 2026 Ally Tip-Off at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte. They pulled away early, never let up, and made a very good team look ordinary. Staley, though, had her own take on what she had just seen. “I think we’re a work in progress,” Staley said. “You know you’ll see us make jumps from, from game to game. And I thought we did. We put 40 minutes together, and I was really, really proud of the group that fin...

Famous for a 5-pound burrito, a Chapel Hill restaurant is closing after 30 years

After three decades, a fixture on Franklin Street will close its doors for good next month. The Mexican restaurant Bandido’s Mexican Cafe announced on Tuesday, Nov. 10 that it will close permanently next month, with its last service slated for Dec. 11. Owner Antoni Sustaita said soaring food and labor costs led to the restaurant’s closing after more than 30 years in business. “Two months ago, lettuce was $28 a case,” he said. “I just paid $100 a case recently. Tomatoes are $60 a case. Cheese was $45 now it’s $90. And we can’t raise prices to match; people won’t pay that much.” Sustaita and his family opened Bandido’s in 1994 as one of the few Mexican restaurants in Chapel Hill at the time. Now with a crowded market and rising costs, he said now was the time to close. “We had a good run, but I’m tired of the wrestle and tired of the fight,” Sustaita said. “I see the writing on the wall. I don’t see the economy getting much better, and it would have to get majorly better.” Bandido’s is perhaps most famous for its El Gigante Burrito, a 5-pound burrito that earns diners a free t-shirt

Perfect Night: Denis Sparks Tar Heels Past Wyoming

Behind a breakout performance from Isaiah Denis and another strong showing from its bench, North Carolina held off a pesky Wyoming squad for a hard-fought victory Tuesday night at the Dean E. Smith Center. While the final margin was comfortable, Wyoming made Carolina earn it. The Cowboys stayed within striking distance for much of the evening by dominating the glass and cashing in on second-chance opportunities. UNC eventually used its depth and offensive efficiency to create separation in the second half.
