On the Issues
What is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
Sites of schools along with class size and transportation times. Lack of transparency on the use of funds by the school board. Curriculum that lacks the ability to have children learn critical-thinking skills. Lack of resources for special-needs children. District boundary issues. Retention and recruitment of teachers and teacher pay. Diminishing quality outcomes. Flexibility and choice of educational forms, such as charter schools and vouchers. Inclusion of home-schooled children in extracurricular activities.
Why should voters elect you?
I am a proven leader who can work through regulations to build consensus and deliver quality outcomes and will work for the people not interests.
