What are the biggest challenges you think your school district will face in the next 3 years

What are the biggest challenges you think your school district will face in the next 3 years?  I believe that the biggest challenge to the School District of Manatee County is to make our schools safe from lone gunman attacks while still be an inviting environment to learn. The safety of our children, teachers and support staff is paramount and is what I would focus on as the number one priority. The next challenge that I think is a priority is teacher retention and teacher hiring to ensure that the teacher to student ratio is balanced while also ensure quality teachers are kept and hired. The third challenge that I think is a priority is fiscal oversight and the efficient use of the bud

GEORGE WASHINGTON, SEPTEMBER 17, 1796

 Yesterday, 22 July 2022, the President of the Manatee County Republican Party sent an email out to the registered emails of Republican that endorses three Republicans running for School Board, which is a nonpartisan position. From my perspective, this unethical and illegal. Basically the Republican Party President, Steve Vernon, is directly campaigning for nonpartisan candidates.

With recent conversations about curriculum, how will you ensure that students will receive a well-rounded education?

With recent conversations about curriculum, how will you ensure that students will receive a well-rounded education?  I will push for the creation of a tiger team of teachers and administrators to create a plan for improvements. This plan needs to be briefed to the superintendent and the school board in a working group while it is being developed, so corrections and concerns can be addressed during the developmental phase. The end product will have been properly reviewed by the school board during its creation to ensure that it represents the public concerns and desires. I would conduct analysis of this plan through the entire process and identify conscious subjects and bring these up for a vote by the board. I would then vote in a manner that was presented in my platform, which is as a conservative that values cost effective innovation with traditional value instilled to enhance the learning environment while creating students that value future learning opportunities.
