Issue Position : Education

Howard had a variety of educational experiences in Nevada -- public, private, homeschool, magnet, and public university. Most of his experiences were positive, but it's undeniable that kids are being left behind and we have some catching up to do. Education is the foundation of our state -- it trains workers, develops entrepreneurs, and crafts smart and caring citizens. Here's how we can strengthen the state's education system:
* Determine how much a quality public education costs -- and fund it

* Ensure every school district provides medically accurate and age-appropriate sex education

* Hold charter schools to the same accountability standards as public schools, since they are receiving public dollars

* Keep public dollars out of private schools
