DPS Board of Education: Office Hours Interviews - So Far!

Sustainability Math: Funding South Durham Neighborhood News

To cover schools, growth, and local government with consistency, Southpoint Access needs more than subscriptions and sponsors - we need community philanthropy to bridge the early-years gap.

On March 3, voters go to the polls to vote in what's listed as a primary - but when it comes to the Durham Public Schools Board of Education, it might as well be the general election.

It's one and done, folks.

Four seats are up for grabs. Three board members - Natalie Beyer (District 4), Jessica Carda-Auten (District 3), and Emily Chavez (District 1) - are stepping down. Incumbent Bettina Umstead (District 2) faces challenges from Nadeen Bir and Rachel Waltz.

I've invited all 12 candidates to participate in 15-minute interviews on Southpoint Access Office Hours. So far, I'm happy to say that 11 have taken me up on the invitation. Sorry I never got the chance to connect with Jerome Leathers!

Below, you'll find the interviews completed so far.
