EDUCATION
What is the function of the local school board?
The function of a local school board is to provide citizens supervision and control over education. Board members are not representatives. They are trustees who are entrusted with the education of ALL students in the district. The Board of trustees must work to serve the best interest of ALL students. Citizen input is essential, and the board listens to the concerns and suggestions as part of their decision-making process. A school board is a governmental body, and the responsibility of an individual board member is to study, evaluate, and deliberate the policy issues confronting the district, then to vote in the best interest of ALL students.
Who should have the authority to set curriculum and determine resources used in those curricula?
School districts should have the authority to set curriculum, determine the resources and methods of instruction.
Please rate in order the following priorities in relation to the role of a K-12 public school (omitting any that do not apply): Mathematics, Information Technology, Science, Political Activism, Personal Finances, Gender Identity, Physical Fitness, American History, Critical Race Theory, Language Arts, Art & Music, Vocational Learning, Sexuality, Foreign Language, Social Emotional Learning
Mathematics, Language Arts, Science, Information Technology, Art&Music, Foreign language, American History, Personal Finances, Social-Emotional Learning, Physical Fitness, Vocational Learning, political Activism, Critical Race Theory, Sexuality
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Agree
Our state should participate in the nationwide Common Core standards for high-school graduation.
Disagree
Schools should use Social Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculum and resources to teach emotions, values, and relationships.
Agree
I support the teaching of the 1619 Project emphasizing slavery and racism as the foundation of American history.
Disagree
When students are taught courses such as Comprehensive Sex Ed (CSE) or Social Emotional Learning (SEL), they must opt-in with written parental permission.
Agree
Parents are the ultimate authority in their child’s education and should be able to freely pursue whatever educational options they deem best for their child.
Agree
No healthcare diagnosis or treatment, whether mental, reproductive, or otherwise, should be given to a child without first receiving written consent from the parent.
Disagree
Who is responsible for teaching sexual education to children, and what is the appropriate age when it should be taught?
I think both school and parents are responsible for teaching sexual education to children. It is essential to provide the students with sexual educations at school because of the different family circumstances the students may have. I think 11-12 should be a good age for students to start sexual education.
If you support the teaching of Sex Ed, please answer the following question: Sexual education should include these topics (list all that apply and add your own, if needed) -- Physical and emotional health outcomes; contraceptive methods; consent; abstinence; sexual orientation and gender identity; human anatomy/the reproductive system; abortion methods and side effects; stages of pregnancy and fetal development; sex acts and pleasures of sex
Physical and emotional health outcomes; contraceptive methods; consent; abstinence; sexual orientation and gender identity; human anatomy/the reproductive system; abortion methods and side effects; stages of pregnancy and fetal development;
VALUES
No school official should be involved in the sexual transitioning of a student. All issues on this subject should be referred to the parents of the student.
Disagree
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality that is necessary for our system of limited government.
Disagree
Teachers should not use alternative names and pronouns without parental permission.
Agree
Therapy for children who have unwanted same-sex attraction should be banned.
No Answer
I support allowing students to use public restrooms, showers, and changing rooms, and to participate in athletic competition based on the gender with which they identify instead of biological sex.
Disagree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a Christian. I respect Christian values.
ABOUT YOU
Why are you running for this office?
I am a school volunteer for the past 13 years and have actively participated in FBISD school board meetings for the past 3 years. I believe serving on the FBISD school board will help me to better advocate for ALL students and teachers. I want to help FBISD to become the best school district it can be.
A candidate's personal moral values should not be relevant when considering a candidacy for elective office.
Strongly Disagree
Which of the 11 objectives specified in the Texas Education Code is your highest priority?
OBJECTIVE 2: Students will be encouraged and challenged to meet their full educational potential.
What books have had the most profound impact on your view of life?
The Little Prince Alice in Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass The Pillars of the Earth Seven Ages of Paris The Alchemist Little Women
What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
I have a Master's degree in Computer Science. I have volunteered at different campuses for 13 years, including international schools, public schools at different school districts, and FBISD schools. I have actively participated in FBISD school board meetings to advocate for students and teachers. I support public educations.
Considering all issues (social, economic, national security, etc.), which of these best describes you?
Somewhat Conservative
Please defend your answer to the previous question by referencing your publicly available track record.
I am conservative/traditional, especially when it comes to education and financial decisions. I am open-minded/liberal when it comes to respecting multiculturalism, religions, and personal choices.
Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.
No
Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
For question 18: I am not sure what Therapy the question refers to. Is it referring to "Shock Therapy"? If so, then I am against it. I came to the US 27 years ago with nothing. This country and people offered me opportunities and kindness. I owe everything to this country, and I would love an opportunity to give back. I want to serve on the school board to encourage our students. I want to serve on the school board to thank the teachers who encouraged me and helped me along the way. I want to serve on the school board to give back to the community.
