Campaign Points
-
Academic achievement - My top priority is closing the achievement gaps that exist in our district so that all students have the opportunity for career or college success.
-
Safe space - Achievement requires that every student be accepted for who they are and have access to the supports they need to achieve their goals.
-
Behavior and discipline - Success at school relies on a discipline program that recognizes that there is more to our kids than just what we see in their behavior.
-
Public school funding - Our schools must not be undermined by proposals to divert public funds to private organizations without the demonstration of positive and lasting results.
-
Taxes and budget - I will continue to pass budgets that maintain the lowest tax rate in Chester County while increasing teacher salaries and the quality of our students’ education.
