Journey to 2008
Wake Education Summit
 
History of the Wake Education Summit
 
Wake Education Partnership worked to put the “public” in “public education” through annual education summits from 1998 through 2005. At each Summit, citizens and community leaders had the opportunity to address a variety of education topics. All of the feedback was shared with key decision-makers at the Wake County Public School System and the Wake County Board of Education, and much of the feedback directly impacted key decisions by these groups. Over the years, Summits also informed the work of community agencies, businesses and other groups concerned with maintaining high quality in our public schools.
