No child should be left in an education system that fails to provide the opportunity to learn and succeed. Unfortunately, many of our schools simply do not provide the quality education and safe learning environment our children deserve.
We cannot continue to forsake our children and our future by allowing a poor education system to continue getting worse. I believe we must commit ourselves to an education system that empowers parents, teachers, and local administrators. Our education system succeeds when the education dollars and decisions are made close to home.
