We, CCSA’s Board of Directors, are writing at this time to convey our concerns about SB570, the Hold Harmless Star Ratings bill.
There is a direct relationship between the education of the early childhood workforce and the ability to support and promote healthy child development, which includes all of the building blocks for later learning-to-read readiness. North Carolinian children need teachers with early childhood education to help them learn. Just say no to SB570.
“WAGE$ helps me hire qualified staff because it does put them on par with other educators. Public schools don’t want to lose teachers every four months, so why should child care?” said child care director Catherine Lieberman.
