New changes could soon take place in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools system.

The CMS Board of Education will hold an emergency meeting on Tuesday to discuss “matters related to Superintendent [Earnest Winston] Contracts and Attendant Personnel Items.”

In February 2021, the CMS school board approved a new contract for Winston that extended his contract through 2025 and raised his salary from $280,000 to $288,400.

Winston was named superintendent in August 2019 after the former superintendent, Dr. ClytonWilcox was suspended and later resigned

During his three-year career as the superintendent, CMS has faced controversies concerning school safety issues, gun violence, and campus sexual assaults.

The district has faced criticism over how these issues have been handled. Read the full story here.
