Issue Position

Public Education
Before being elected to the Legislature, Ken served as President of his local school district board. This gives him a unique understanding of the problems facing our rural schools. And he believes strongly in the mission of providing the highest quality education for our children. Unfortunately, state government has taken too much control over how this system is funded and what's being taught in the classroom. The solution is more local control. Ken was appointed to the House Committee on Public Education his first term in office. This committee appointment gives him the opportunity to have a direct impact on decisions regarding Public Education.
