J.M. SCHOOLER, SR.
Eddie Davis to ‘Run’ In
100 Counties — Candidate
For Head of NCAE
Eddie Davis, an African
American educator from Durham,
has declared his candidacy for Uie
state presidency of the North
Carolina Association of Educators
(NCAE) by announcing that he wiU
"run a mile" in each of North
Carolina’s 100 counties by April
25, ly94.
Davis, an English teacher at
Hillside High School and a member
of the State Board of Education, is
a long-time activist in educational
and human rights circles. NCAE is
the state’s largest organization of
educators.
"As I contemplated running for
NCAE’s top position, 1 decided that
I wanted to hear what grassroot
citizens have as a vision of tlic
future of the children of Nonh
Carolina. Since 1 also need to shed
a few pounds from my more than
ample girth, I have challenged
myself to run, walk, talk, and listen
in every county before the NCAE
elections in April," Davis said.
Davis stated that he will use the
"site-based" input along with his
own vision for educational reform
to develop his campaign platform.
Although he wants to hear
specifically from educators on his
periodic jogs, he said, "I want
parents, policymakers, students,
and community supporters of
public education to feel free to
share opinions and comments on
how the NCAE and the entire state
can work together to improve the
education and the lives of our
children."
Davis began his "Running
Campaign for Children" in
Asheboro, the state’s geographic
center, on Saturday, November 27.
He said that he hopes to use
weekends to traverse the Tar Heel
State during the winter and early
spring. He plans for his "final mile"
to be run in Durham on April 25,
1994.
Actually Davis is not a stranger to
journeys across North Carolina.
During the Christmas holiday
season of 1987, he led a group of
Hillside High School students on a
IJ-day walk through the state to
benefit the Kidney Foundation.
The world’s promises are greater
