By Jenny Drabble Staff Writer
National Heritage Academies announced Tuesday that it would no longer be part of Carrboro’s first approved charter school, raising questions for the school’s board about how to move forward. The proposed Howard and Lillian Lee Scholars Charter School, which was scheduled to open in August, may be delayed as a result of the manage- ment company’s decision to back out. “We have the utmost admiration for Howard and Lillian Lee, the members of the school board and the many others we have partnered with in the community to try to bring this school to life,” said Nick Paradiso, vice president of partner services and government relations for National dth/chelsey allder Heritage Academies, in a press release. Ricky Ruvio, who plays Farmer Joe, tells the sheep a story of a dragon and a knight. “A Little Knight Musical” will be performed at elementary schools. Danita Mason-Hogans, board member for the school, said the board was told the decision was not due to controversy or lack of interest in the school.

I love Summer School. I wanted to apply to Kenan-Flagler Business School, and many courses had many prerequisites. So I strategically planned to take the most difficult one (Econ 410) the summer after my freshman year. After being accepted to Kenan-Flagler my sophomore year, I decided to enroll in Summer School again. I took the most difficult business school class for me: Corporate Finance. HISTORIC PLAYMAKERS THEATRE I went through Summer School because Economics and Finance are not my strongest PRIOR TO THE JOFFREY BALLET PERFORMANCES subjects, and I knew that focusing all my time on one class would be beneficial.
