Today is the last day of May and, throughout the state, public school students on traditional calendars have started their end of course exams. The above photo was taken at the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction (NCDPI) on May 16th when the teachers marched in Raleigh. Even thought this is GREENSBORO Daily Photo, we are reminded that the public schools are all governed by the NCDPI. The above photo was taken on the back lawn behind the building, showing the artwork on the building.
If you see a public school child around town this week, wish them all the best on these exams. If you have one in your house, help them eat well and get a good night's sleep. If students are well rested and fed, they will likely be more alert and able to focus. Remind them of what is engraved on the NCDPI building, "You are a child you are suitable to be awed" and add, "you are a child, we are in awe of you." Happy Thursday and happy end to the school year!
Here the scheduling is different, so exams will be around mid-June for students at the high school level.
