Issue Position: Education - Building Tennessee's Future

Issue Position

As a product of Nashville's public schools and former teacher at Glencliff and Overton High schools, I know the schools in our community very well. Building a better future for Tennessee starts in the classroom and I will fight to guarantee every child in District 53 receives an excellent education.

*Support current teachers by celebrating their successes and recruit more quality teachers

*Explore creative and constructive solutions for improving student performance

*Revise the education funding formula to ensure that major school districts such as Nashville receive sufficient funding

*Prepare every high school graduate to enter the workforce at a competitive level or to succeed in college

Let's make our schools, colleges and universities the centers of our communities and institutions in which we take pride.
