School vouchers under scrutiny as incoming NC House speaker prioritizes education

RALEIGH — It’s been just over a week since Democrats flipped the North Carolina House, and major issues are emerging that they’ll focus on come January. Among them is a topic that has dominated debate, and Democratic priorities, for years: education funding. House Minority Leader Robert Reives, who has the votes to be the speaker when session begins in 2027, told reporters Tuesday he wants the state to be top in the nation in education. And, he added, private school vouchers, like other programs funded by taxpayers, will get the same scrutiny during upcoming budget negotiations. North Carolina has frequently been low in the ranks nationwide in terms of education, from teacher pay to spending. Reives wants to change that. “I think we should have the best education system in the country, but I think the education system isn’t just about pay,” he told reporters on Tuesday. “I can tell you there are teachers right now that I promise you, they would trade a pay raise for a better working environment,” he said. “They’d trade a pay raise to be able to get more supplies, to be able to get more time, to not be under constraints that don’t really

Mayo throws for four TDs, runs for another as Cougars advance in 4A playoffs

PINETOPS — D.J. Mayo threw for four touchdowns and ran for one as SouthWest Edgecombe moved on in the North Carolina High School Athletic Association Class 4A playoffs with a 40-21 victory over Central Davidson in the second round Friday night at home. The No. 6 seeded Cougars improved to 8-3 overall following a first-round bye and will travel to Clinton next week for a battle against the No. 3 seed Dark Horses (8-3), who squeezed past Southwest Onslow 17-16 in their second-round contest. Central Davidson, the No. 22 seed, ended its season at 4-8 overall. The Spartans opened the game with a 65-yard drive in 18 plays, chewing up a little more than nine minutes of the first quarter. Keith Leonard’s one-yard TD run and the extra point from Henry Duran gave the visitors from Lexington a 7-0 lead with 2:56 left in the first quarter. That proved to be Central Davidson’s only lead of the night. SouthWest Edgecombe answered with a 53-yard drive after recovering the short kick. The Cougars needed just seven plays, with the kickstarter being a 14-yard pass from Mayo to Tavion Dickens coupled with a facemask penalty. Mayo later found Makhi Jones on an

High school NIL grows some in N.C.; local impact remains minimal

Two years ago, some feared that by now, the best player on every high school sports team in America would be getting paid. It was then that a Wake County judge granted an injunction that struck down North Carolina’s ban on high school athletes being able to be paid for their name, image and likeness. Much was made at the time of the importance of establishing a means for high school athletes nationwide to have access to the same deals college kids were getting. North Carolina followed suit with other states, establishing an NIL platform for high school athletes similar to the NCAA’s wide-sweeping changes that allowed outside entities to pay the players who were responsible for generating much of the popularity, exposure and revenue enjoyed by their schools. Since the door was kicked open, high school NIL deals in North Carolina have grown somewhat, but their average payout isn’t much and their reach hasn’t been far. Pitt County this year has one athlete on an NIL deal, a first for the county. But the question remains, is the high school NIL era ever really going to catch on? “I would say as far as the big picture goes, what
