Summary
Wake County’s school board is undergoing a major shakeup as two longtime members, Cheryl Caulfield and Chris Heagarty, step down—opening the door for new voices. Caulfield, known for her conservative views and clashes over funding and vouchers, is leaving for family and health reasons. Heagarty, a busy attorney and CEO, is stepping aside for more family time and has endorsed Maddie Segal to replace him in District Seven. Other candidates like Jacob Arthur and Amita Gupta are also in the race, while Christina Gordon and Tyler Swanson aim to retain their seats. This transition signals the end of an era and sets the stage for fresh leadership as the board tackles the district’s future challenges.
