Teachers have no voice on any of the $600 million budget. Dozens of unused software applications increase every year and cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Teachers have no voice on any of the $600 million budget. Dozens of unused software applications increase every year and cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. We need to be more effective when budgeting for behavior support in the classroom. My plan is to work with the board to create new policies and funding for behavior management, and to increase teacher pay at a faster and more respectable rate than 1.3%.
We need real classroom support.

Students with extreme behaviors are not being held accountable or given an appropriate learning environment. They are simply passed around from one teacher to another. This practice of transferring a problem is destructive to many classrooms. This is a simple funding and policy issue we can fix, together. I will work with the board to reallocate funds for more behavioral team support. All of our children will learn more with less disruptions in the classroom.

Teachers with highly effective performance evaluations are being non-renewed and banned from teaching for 1 year. Others are walking away from education. Why is this happening? This has been a longstanding problem, but now with a new bully tactic of a 1 year ban that needs to be reversed immediately. I will work with the board to create legal and effective performance policies that make sense for all teachers and administrators.
We cannot keep Blaming this on the teachers.
Our leaders are failing us. Students with uncontrollable behaviors are regularly permitted to stay in classrooms and deprive others of a safe and appropriate learning environment. Other counties are suing the State over this. What are we doing about it? This is not a data problem. This is a leadership problem.
