Issue Position: Education

Issue Position

I support an "All of the Above" approach to improving education in Florida and protecting Florida from federal overreach. I DO NOT support Common Core. I am a supporter of school choice and charter schools. We need more accountability in education. We cannot accept failing schools and do nothing about it. I believe that is a great area where proven charter schools can come into a community and turnaround failing schools.

We should reward great teachers with better pay and reduce testing in the classroom to focus more time on core STEM education, as well as civics and history. Our children should learn the foundation of this country and how it works.
