Issue Position: Education

Issue Position

As a product of Winona Area Public Schools, I know the necessity of publicly funded education and I will continue working to ensure our schools remain among the best in the country. Every child in the state of Minnesota deserves a high quality education and I am committed to making sure this trend continues. Our teachers also should receive the credit they deserve.

Education is essential to competitiveness and preparing generations for responsible citizenship in a free society. I will continue to work to cut costly mandates on our schools, advocate for more local control, work to have a fair and equitable funding model for all schools, and keep Minnesota's cutting edge history of reform and choice in place. Today's students are tomorrow's future.
