Carr advises caution when passing stopped school bus

Georgia elementary, middle and high school students showed strong improvements this year on the annual College and Career Ready Performance Index (CCRPI), the state Department of Education has reported.

ATLANTA — State School Superintendent Richard Woods has apologized for failing to effectively communicate why he is not recommending adding an Advanced Placement African American studies course to the state’s curriculum offerings.

But in a statement released Wednesday, Woods said he has not changed his mind about not moving forward during the new school year with an AP course that was piloted in several school districts in 2023-24.
