A note on Tuesday's CMS Budget Vote 🗳️

Neighbors, I voted no on Superintendent Dr. Crystal Hill’s 2026-2027 budget recommendation.

Why I Voted No… The board has held multiple budget workshops and work sessions. We’ve asked questions. We’ve followed the process. But when specific concerns go unaddressed on a $698 million county budget, I’m not going to vote yes just because the calendar says it’s time.

We’re reconvening on Monday for our Board retreat make-up day. Head to the CMS website to review the agenda and stay engaged in our work. Subscribe to my newsletter for updates following our time together in Winston-Salem!

The Board will hold its annual retreat make-up day on Monday, April 20, at the Graylyn International Conference Center in Winston-Salem, NC. View the agenda on our website.

Glad to be in the room for this celebration! 💜
