Education Ensuring our district implements and utilizes a new strategic framework with community input and feedback, and include key performance indicators (KPI's) that contain easily accessible and understandable information for public viewing. Education I will closely monitor test scores for not only proficiency, but also for growth, which needs to be highlighted for its own importance. Taxes / Budget Tied closely with student outcomes, I will work with our local state legislators in advocating for improved school funding that supports students, staff, and taxpayers. While I aim to be mindful of budgets and spending, we cannot continue to expect more out of staff and students, while not providing sufficient funding on the state level to support our student's needs and compensate staff fairly. Education I will also encourage staff and student feedback to evaluate learning and outcomes. Communication with all stakeholders is essential for better outcomes. Education Learning and growth also happen beyond math and literacy courses, and we need to continue to offer electives that engage our students.
