Increased Academic Transparency.

HB 878 requires North Carolina public schools to post lesson plans and course materials online within 10 days of use. Schools must display links to instructional materials (like textbooks and digital resources), procedures for reviewing materials, and teacher training details on their websites, organized by subject and grade level. The law applies to all public schools except those with fewer than 30 students total, and teachers may request to use only their last initial for privacy. It does not require posting the actual materials themselves, only links and descriptions, and maintains the information online for two years. This policy directly affects parents, educators, and community members seeking transparency about classroom content.
