NC Public Schools

The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction (NCDPI) is the state agency supporting public education across North Carolina. Its website serves educators, students and families, school districts, and other members of the public with information, resources, and services related to K–12 education. Educators can find licensing guidance, professional development, recruitment support, instructional resources, and information about recognition programs. Students and families can explore enrollment information, student support, alternative learning options, and parent resources. For districts and schools, NCDPI provides operational and program support, funding information, classroom resources, and guidance on graduation requirements, accountability, and testing.

The agency also publishes education data and reports, including school report cards, testing results, demographics, finances, dropout and discipline information, and performance measures. Its site highlights the department’s strategic plan, curriculum and instruction resources, and Science of Reading initiative, alongside news, events, public notices, and updates. NCDPI provides access to employee directories, job opportunities, and contact information, helping connect North Carolina’s public education community with state-level guidance and services.
