Top Issues

Education Striving for excellence means always asking how we can do better for our students. This requires supporting teachers, listening to parents, and making thoughtful decisions that keep students at the center. CCPS has a strong foundation, and we must continue building on that strength by encouraging innovation, high academic standards, and preparing students for whatever path they choose after graduating. Taxes / Budget Our budget needs to include necessary resources so that PTAs and PTOs are not filling the gaps in the operating budget. Taxes / Budget I will advocate for sustained investment in school facilities that reflects the priority our community places on education to make sure our students are successful. Schools are the foundations of our communities. An investment in education is an investment in ourselves and our future. Taxes / Budget My highest priority is that the school system has the budget and staffing necessary to fulfill its mission of educating our children. The operating budget must be sufficient to recruit and retain high quality teachers, staff, and educational professionals who show up every day for our students.
