Issue Position: Strengthening Schools

Issue Position

Many people choose to live in our community because of the quality of our schools. As a mother of three boys who is married to a high school teacher, I believe that preserving and strengthening these institutions, as well as making college affordable, is vital to our state's future. Improving the performance of public schools is critical and requires that all parties -- parents, teachers, administrators, and members of the community -- work together to make education a priority for children. The State needs to invest in funding all levels of education appropriately and honor its obligation to pay our schools on time.
