Issue Position: High Performing Schools

Issue Position

Montana has some of the best students in the world, and Montana's government needs to ensure they are given every opportunity to compete. A well-educated population not only draws businesses to Montana -- it helps the younger generation achieve their dreams.

We must make sure higher education is affordable and that starts by giving schools the resources and funding they need to succeed. Montana's students deserve a quality education and a well- educated workforce draws businesses to Montana.

Let's invest in and expand Montana's technical colleges and job retraining programs to ensure Montanans have the skills needed for the jobs of the future.

We must support Montana's teachers by giving them opportunities for further their education as well. Montana needs to ensure teachers have access to high quality, sustainable professional development.
