Issue Position: Education

Issue Position

During his four years in the State Senate, Devin has supported funding increases of over $500 per student in K-12 public education. Additionally, fiscally conservative school districts have been given more flexibility over the next five years in order to bring more parity to the discrepancies in the school funding formula. This will help the frugal, low spending school districts direct more dollars into their classrooms.

However, Devin understands more needs to be done. The school funding formula is broken and needs to be fixed. We must do more to shift education decisions to the local level.

Finally, education works best with involved parents. Devin will ensure that parents, especially those with limited means, are afforded every opportunity to choose what school is best for their children.
