SAFE SCHOOLS

•  Maintain Strong Campus Security
• Improve Emergency Preparedness
• Support Safe, Orderly Classrooms

For Students & Staff

A school can't teach if it isn't safe. When a building isn't secure, it's a distraction for students, teachers, and staff alike. Safety — real physical security, and a climate of respect where teachers are supported and backed up — is the foundation everything else is built on. Safety is the foundation that allows everything else in our schools to work.

FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY

• Prioritize Students and Classrooms
• Ensure Transparent Spending
• Maximize Every Tax Dollar

Transparency Above All Else

Safe schools need adequate funding. I believe in full transparency and accounting when it comes to taxpayer money, with no ambiguity on how it's collected or spent. Also, I'll push to put the numbers out plainly and explain them, so any taxpayer can see exactly where their money goes and the difference it makes.

COMPETITIVE PAY

• Keep Salaries Competitive
• Reward Experience and Service
• Retain Great Teachers and Staff

For Teachers & Staff

Safe, well-funded schools must continuously strive for excellence, and it's the individuals involved who make that happen. To attract and retain qualified and dedicated professionals, including paraprofessionals, bus drivers, custodians, cafeteria staff, and more, we must provide competitive salaries that recognize their expertise, commitment, and service.
