Education

Our nation’s future relies on our public education system. I support increasing federal funding to our local schools at all levels, from Pre-K through college. Our teachers need to have resources and supplies for their classrooms, smaller class sizes, and higher wages so that they can best support and teach our children. Property value should not determine whether or not children have access to quality education. We need safe-school policies, onsite social workers and counselors, robust Pre-K programs and special education, and programs for at-risk or vulnerable students at every school across the district.
