RIGHT TO LIFE
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not be a resource for instruction or services in the school.
Strongly Agree
Human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection at every stage until natural death.
Strongly Agree
ECONOMY
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
School districts should be able to use taxpayer money for lobbying the state legislature.
Strongly Disagree
What is your position on government funding of public education from Pre-K through college?
Did not answer
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
At school, students should be able to speak freely and civilly about matters of conscience and faith, including Christianity.
Strongly Agree
Students should be able to speak freely of such matters. Influence from adults should be from family.
School districts should not discriminate against individuals, organizations or small businesses because of their belief that marriage is only a union of one man and one woman.
Strongly Agree
Students should not be allowed to pray in school.
Strongly Disagree
EDUCATION
What is the function of the local school board?
The school board has many responsibilities, but none greater than to serve the parents and community by whom they were elected. Parent and community engagement in matters that have an impact on children and our community should be solicited and respected.
Who should have the authority to set curriculum and determine resources used in those curricula?
The state determines minimum curriculum standards. While the school board has authority to select and review curriculum, this should not be done without parent oversight. All curriculum should be made easily available to parents for review. All concerns regarding curriculum should be heard and fairly reviewed by the school board. YouTube should not be considered a valid source for curriculum unless supplemental to printed, approved curriculum.
When should parents be restricted from speaking in school board meetings?
Never. Parents should have an open invitation to speak at school board meetings. Parental concerns should be addressed and acknowledged.
Please list 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
Language Arts, Mathematics, American History, Science, Personal Finances, Physical Fitness, Information Technology, Art and Music, Vocational Learning, Foreign Language
American civics education should emphasize our nation's founding principles of liberty and equality.
Strongly Agree
Before students are taught courses such as Comprehensive Sex Ed (CSE) or Social Emotional Learning (SEL), they must opt-in with written parental permission.
Strongly Agree
I feel these topics should not be taught in schools and should be personal discussions between parents and students.
The loss of local control in education is too high a price to pay in exchange for federal dollars.
Strongly Agree
I support the teaching of curricula (such as the 1619 Project, No Place for Hate, Second Step, etc.) that emphasizes slavery and racism as the foundation of American history.
Strongly Disagree
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.
Strongly Agree
Our school boards should strive to make the most convenient option the best option. Our families of our communities should have a safe and affordable school option, free of bias and discrimination.
VALUES
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
Jesus is my savior, I am a humble and blessed child of God. I value Jesus' death and resurrection for the salvation of my soul.
I support allowing public high school students to participate in athletic competition based on the gender with which they identify instead of biological sex.
Strongly Disagree
Who is responsible for teaching sexual education to children, and what is the appropriate age when it should be taught?
Biological function of the human body, as confirmed through science, is an acceptable topic. Other sexual education matters should be parental responsibilities.
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
Human anatomy/the reproductive system
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality that is necessary for our system of limited government.
Strongly 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.
Strongly Agree
Parents have a right and responsibility to be involved in all medical decisions for their children. This is not the right or responsibility of the school or government.
No school official should be involved in the sexual transitioning of a student, including the use of alternative names and pronouns.
Strongly Agree
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
Accountability is critical to a strong society.
