Issue Position: Education

Issue Position

Most of my career has been in education higher education, first at Tuskegee and then at the Alabama Department of Postsecondary Education. In addition, as the parent of two daughters and the grandparent of two grandchildren, I have seen first-hard the need for quality, competitive education.

Education needs to be adequately funded for pre-k to higher education. Schools in parts of District 82 are desperately in need of additional funding for supplies, equipment, and transportation. In order to maintain quality faculty, we must provide competitive salaries to insure stability.

I will:

Fight for adequate funding for pre-k through higher education.

Fight for additional funding for supplies, equipment, and transportation.

Provide competitive salaries to insure job stability for faculty.
