I felt the district's handling of covid was abysmal, and their spending is out of control.

Overspending: We need to do a deep dive into administration costs and stop green lighting every pet cause.
The district is threatening to cancel all sports and extracurricular activities due to their own overspending. If we must slash the budget, this is an extremely close community. We would be willing to crowdfund sports and we must rethink administrators from urban areas hired to oversee rural villages.

Absolutely! Government run institutions have been overmanaged and overfunded without any competition. This partially explains the dismal state of public education. If schools had to compete by offering the highest quality education, they may actually teach a child to read. (Chicago public schools have an 86% graduation rate and a 24% literacy rate) Specifically, by allowing students in lower income areas to attend schools in more affluent neighbourhoods, it might force the districts to improve all schools, not just the ones attended by children of politicians.

Parents. No question.

Certainly not. We are the second nation to have abolished slavery, and this is the least racist, multiracial country on earth. Over three million immigrants have come here from Africa in the last fifty years, and they are among the most successful citizens in the nation. Additionally, I seriously doubt we would have had an African American president if the USA was inherently racist. This nation was founded on an ideal if personal liberty and freedom. Its unfortunate that the process to include everyone took some time, but it was a process.

All progressive/Marxist propaganda. DEI is a failed redistribution plan, in spite of the left pushing the agenda so hard. Comprehensive sex education should be banned. It has nothing to do with biology, which should be taught in junior high, and comes across as pedophilia.

I believe we need tonget back to basics, and stop indoctrinating children into leftist ideology. This won't stop in one election cycle. The education system has been creating teachers who are beholden to Marxist theory for well over fifty years. However, it must start locally. Teach our own children solid values, and focus on math, reading, and unaltered history.

Biological males should never be allowed in bathrooms, locker rooms, or changing rooms with biological girls. Ever. Biological males should not be allowed to compete in female sports. If absolutely necessary, perhaps separate facilities and activities could be arranged for "trans" people.

Absolutely

Not yet. I have been extremely outspoken, but wanted nothing to do with seeking public office. Many of the local parents have continued to ask me to run. I have their support.
