KEY ISSUES
1. Provide the top 2 reasons why you want to run for school board?

1. I want to bring core subjects back to the forefront of our children's education.
2. The wasteful spending of our tax dollars needs to go mainly towards education. Every year there are more administrators hired than teachers to the point now they outnumber the teachers. There are dozens of programs that run unregulated and have not been in looked at in years.

2. Name the top 2 issues with your current school board or district and how you will address each issue.

1. Teachers don't use an approved curriculum for the current year. Last year the curriculum was approved 2 months before the school year ended and this year a curriculum has yet to be approved.
2. The school board currently bows to whatever is in politically. Politics needs to stay out of our schools.

3. Do you support school choice? Why or why not?

Yes. Every parent should have the opportunity to give their child a chance at getting the best education

4. Who do you think is the ultimate authority in a child’s education and wellbeing?

The PARENTS

5. Do you agree with the statement “America is inherently racist”? Why or why not?

NO!
I was born in a communist country(Albania). We escaped and moved to Budapest Hungary and moved to the United States when I was 16. I have to say whenever I hear someone even bringing this topic I laugh and sad at the same time. America is the kindest, the most excepting nation than any other nation in the world regardless of our nationalities, color, race, and faith.

6. What are your thoughts on “Comprehensive Sex Education”, “Diversity Equity and Inclusion”, and “Social Emotional Learning”? Should these be a part of our public education curriculum or supplemental learning materials or left to parents to teach and why?

These subjects have no business in our schools. Schools are for the education of our children to promote critical thinking. Teachers are not psychologists nor do they have the education to delve into these subjects. Furthermore, teachers are there to teach core subjects and it's the job of the PARENTS to teach their children their moral compass and how and what to feel.

7. With declining academic achievement in reading, writing, math, and science in schools across the nation, how would you address these issues if elected?

1. To much of our children's time is wasted on programs like the ones in the above question and taking away precious time from our children's core education.
2. To much money is wasted on administrators like DEI when that money could be better spent on adding more teachers to bring the student teacher ratio down.

8. Safety is a major concern for most families, how would you support and encourage safety measures for girls in their private spaces, if elected?

There can not be gender neutral bathrooms or locker rooms in our schools. Under my watch I will not allow a child to get hurt like what happened in Virginia. We need to bring respect for our girls and protect them at all cost.

9. Do you believe Title IX is in jeopardy in our public education system today?

Yes

10. Do you have any other endorsements? If so, please list them.
