Give NC Teachers Their Vac. Get Them Back!

Give NC Teachers Their Vac. Get Them Back!

The Issue

Teacher vaccinations are key for many North Carolina schools/school systems to reopen their doors to students. NC leaders continuously claim teachers are a "top priority" to receive the covid vaccination.  Yet, the current vaccine distribution in North Carolina lists Educators in Group 3, along side seven other groups of frontline essential workers like grocery store and restaurant employees. The promise of educators being "next in line" is not good enough-- especially with current news reports citing Group 3 may have to wait longer than expected.  

This petition is for parent voices to demand our Educators be moved to Group 2 of the North Carolina vaccination distribution plan, which is currently active, so we can reopen our schools quickly for the positive benefit of all, mostly our children. Many local school administrators have expressed this same desire with little movement from higher NC officials.  Please sign this petition to aid this effort!
