T. Keung Hui & Thomas Goldmsith

The Wake County school board has just thrown out its controversial, community-based assignment plan on a motion by vice chairwoman Debra Goldman.
A directive passed out by Keith Sutton, a member of the former board minority, calls for the following action:
“Any and all efforts to create a zone-based assignment model will cease effective immediately.”
The motion underwent brief discussion by the board in a meeting that has already lasted for nearly five hours.
Goldman made the motion and Sutton, formerly part of an opposing faction on the board, seconded it.
It passed on a 5-3 vote, with Goldman joining her four former opponents on the board.
