QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

Human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection at every stage until natural death.

Choose not to answer

What role should the school serve in helping a student with an unwanted or crisis pregnancy?

Staff may provide referrals to physicians and health professionals in the community outside of a school setting. These conversations are private between a doctor and their patient and a minor patient's parents, not within a school.


ECONOMY

Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.

Strongly Agree

What is your position on government funding of public education from Pre-K through college?

Public education is a critical component of preparing youth and young adults for their lives beyond high school. Through the dynamic, ever-changing world, public education must remain innovative and adaptive so that they continue to educate and prepare individuals for jobs beyond high school.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

Teachers should be required to refer to students by pronouns which are misaligned with their gender at birth even if it would violate the teacher's moral and/or religious beliefs.

Disagree


EDUCATION

Abortion and gender-affirming providers, including Planned Parenthood, should be a resource for instruction or services in the school.

Disagree

Consistent discipline creates a safe and orderly environment, which is essential for student learning.

Agree

Do you believe print and digital material available or presented to students should be easily accessible for public review, including those without children enrolled in school?

Yes

Educators should give students a thorough education in America's founding documents and cultivate American patriotism.

Agree

I support Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI).

Choose not to answer

Texas law prohibits public institutions of higher education in the state from establishing or maintaining DEI offices.

I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.

Choose not to answer

Please list in order the following priorities in relation to the role of a K-12 public school (omitting any that do not apply): American History, Art & Music, Civics, Critical Race Theory, Foreign Language, Gender Identity, Information Technology, Language Arts, Mathematics, Personal Finances, Physical Fitness, Political Activism, Science, Sexuality, Social Emotional Learning, Vocational Learning

Texas law prohibits critical race theory from being taught K-12. Gender identity, sexuality beyond a basic opt-in sex education, and political activism should not be the role of K-12 public school education.

The state should fund education by allowing dollars to follow the child instead of the bureaucracy, through a program which allows parents the freedom to choose their child's school – public, private, or homeschool.

Choose not to answer

Which should students have: equity of outcomes or equality of opportunities?

Equality of opportunities

Which type of written parental consent should be obtained before students are taught courses such as Comprehensive Sex Education (CSE)? (A) Opt-In. (B) Opt-Out. (C) None.

Opt-In


VALUES

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am a Bible-believing Christian who believes that Jesus Christ died on the cross for my sins. I value the Bible and the importance of the family unit and parental responsibility in the home.

Who is responsible for teaching sexual education to children, and what is the appropriate age when it should be taught?

human anatomy/ the reproductive system; physical and emotional health outcomes; stages of pregnancy and fetal development

Children have a right to reach maturity without chemical or surgical castration, which would damage their healthy bodies through surgeries and may cause infertility and a life-long dependence on cross-sex hormones.

Agree

Children have the right to be protected from hypersexualization (including drag shows and explicit materials) in schools and libraries.

Agree

Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman essential to the formation and sustaining of a civil and prosperous society.
