We are deeply saddened by the passing of former North Carolina Governor Jim Hunt. Gov. Hunt’s lifelong commitment to education shaped our state and influenced education policy nationwide — from expanding early learning to championing teachers, public schools, and higher education. He leaves a lasting legacy that will continue to benefit generations to come. We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and all who were inspired by his leadership and vision.
