Issues
Academic Excellence
The primary function of our schools is to engage, inspire and educate students to maximize their academic growth and allow them to achieve their full potential.
Safeguarding
children
High expectations are necessary to ensure a safe, fair and respectful environment where rules are enforced equally. Every student has an opportunity to learn free from fear and disruption.
Parental Rights
Parents have the right and the responsibility to teach their family values to their children based on their own traditions and belief systems. The district has a responsibility to ensure a safe, neutral teaching environment using age-appropriate materials without political or ideological bias.
TEACHER SUPPORT
The District must give teachers the autonomy to administer their classroom and maintain discipline for an effective learning environment. Teachers must be supported with competitive compensation, effective and consistent student discipline and be free from excess administrative burdens.
fiscal responsibility
The Board of Trustees must earn the community’s trust by being responsible stewards of tax pay dollars, prioritizing funds for student achievement, and ensuring transparency in all district functions.
