Issue Position

While Manchester schools provide a decent education, property taxes are high and continue to rise. Many schools and SAUs have expensive administrative and overhead costs that don't directly contribute to educating students.

Giving parents and students more choices in learning will deliver better service at a lower cost. When public, private, and charter schools are allowed (and encouraged) to compete, the result is better educational outcomes for all. Let's free our schools from onerous top-down, one-size-fits-all regulations, and let teachers and principals, as well as parents and students, do what they do best at the local level.
