What's on this agenda

The Education Committee hears two briefings at this meeting: an update from Wake County Smart Start on its FY27 budget development, and a presentation from Wake Tech (WTCC) on its workforce education programs. Both are informational updates rather than votes.

This is a light agenda focused on early-childhood and workforce-training partners the county funds, not a policy decision residents need to weigh in on.
