What is EduBuilder?
EduBuilder is a division of Parents for Educational Freedom in North Carolina (PEFNC) designed to directly support and empower community and education leaders.
EduBuilder is a hands-on implementation partner, helping new and existing schools overcome operational hurdles, navigate complex challenges and to provide the expert guidance necessary to build thriving high-quality educational opportunities. With the expansion of the NC Opportunity Scholarship, demand for school choice has surged, but there is a critical shortage of seats, especially in rural communities where families may only have the local public school as an option.
While PEFNC traditionally focuses on parental advocacy and the North Carolina State Education Assistance Authority manages scholarship administration, EduBuilder fills a critical gap by providing targeted assistance to current and potential school leaders.
EduBuilder is a multi-faceted support system for North Carolina's private schools, with services provided at no cost.
