Michele Morrow

Education Michele will prioritize spending on student resource officers, video surveillance, and weapons detection systems in every school based on the 2021 safety audits. Education North Carolina's education system needs sound fiscal policies and practices to deliver academic results and support teachers and school staff.Michele will work with financial experts and legislators to streamline our spending to focus on teacher recruitment and training, student resources, and infrastructure. Education On day one, Michele will bring in an outside forensic accounting firm to track down every dime of missing classroom money. Taxpayers' money will go to underfunded schools that desperately need resources and support and to the staff who work directly with our students day in and day out. Education Michele knows that North Carolina's public education system must be fueled by a fiscally conservative, free-market, and competitive environment. Education There are no consequences for swearing at, defying, or ignoring instructors. It is not uncommon for students to physically assault teachers, bus drivers, or their peers with impunity. School staff and students should never be fearful in our schools and disorder cannot be tolerated. Education Michele will identify, decrease, or terminate wasteful programs at the state level, and end contracts with organizations that cannot demonstrate a direct, consistent, positive impact on student success and staff retention. Education In Michele's view, all children possess unique strengths and talents to bring to the community. She believes it is North Carolina's education leaders' job to create policies and remove barriers that will help develop these attributes. This will put every child on a path to critical thinking and prosperity.
