  • North Carolina's place on the list was the result of low scores when it came to "Opportunity and Competition," as well as "Academic and Work Environment."

North Carolina's place on the list was the result of low scores when it came to "Opportunity and Competition" (NC ranks 47), as well as "Academic and Work Environment" (NC ranks 43).

Back in May, teachers across North Carolina marched in Raleigh asking for better pay and better work conditions.
