 Education is the nucleus of our community and first and foremost that falls into the hands of our teachers. Your children will spend 30% of their adolescent life with a teacher. The better we prepare our children academically and with general life experiences the more chance they will be successful.

We need a well-structured budget that allocates competitive salaries, effective use of funds and fosters a supportive learning environment.

We are faced with a shortage in educators and other positions, there are too many vacant positions. Special education positions are at the top of the list. Are our starting salaries comparable with similar size cities and demographics? Certainly, a major contributing factor to filling vacant positions. 

Not only Investing for higher learning academic skills, but we should also provide more funded programs for those interested in extended Arts, Music and STEM subjects. This may be done through federal, state or private grants.
