My Christian faith is my guiding compass, and it shapes my deep conviction that all human life is sacred and deserves full legal protection—from the moment of conception until natural death

The school district’s role is to work with both the student and the parent or guardian to help the student stay on track for graduation and future success. For students who become parents, our district offers a specialized program that allows them to continue their education while providing on-site childcare for their child. The goal is to ensure that a pregnancy or becoming a parent does not prevent a student from earning a diploma and pursuing future educational or career opportunities.

Strongly Agree

I believe students are responsible for repaying the student loans they voluntarily choose to take on. Taxpayers should not be expected to assume that responsibility. An exception can be appropriate for programs that provide loan forgiveness in exchange for a commitment to serve the public in high-need fields, such as teaching, healthcare, or military service, where there is a clear public benefit.

I believe the government’s primary responsibility is to provide funding for a quality K–12 public education. Where funding is available, I support voluntary Pre-K programs, but I do not believe Pre-K should be mandatory or universally government-funded. For higher education, I support expanding opportunities through scholarships, grants, work-study programs, and other forms of merit- or need-based financial assistance. I do not support universal free college tuition.

Separation of church and school means public schools cannot establish or promote a particular religion, while students and staff retain their individual rights to freely practice and express their faith as protected by the Constitution.

Strongly Agree

I support the lawful deportation of individuals who are in the country illegally. At the same time, I believe public school districts have a legal obligation to educate every child who enrolls and should not inquire about a student’s immigration status as a condition of receiving a public education.

Strongly Disagree

I do not believe abortion providers or organizations that promote gender-affirming services should provide instruction or services in our public schools. Schools should use only state-approved sex education curriculum, and parents should always have the right to review the curriculum and opt their child out if they choose.

Strongly Agree

The Student Code of Conduct establishes clear expectations for behavior and appropriate consequences when those expectations are not met. It is important because it helps maintain a safe, orderly learning environment for students and staff while minimizing disruptions so teachers can focus on teaching and students can focus on learning.

Strongly Agree

Educators should give students a thorough education in America's founding documents and cultivate American patriotism because our present students will be our future leaders

Strongly Agree

School funding is being shifted to other federal agencies because of the elimination of the department of education. These other agencies are then sending funding to states to best use. Before 1979 there was no DOE.

I support teaching the State Approved Sex Ed curriculum with an opt out for parents.

Strongly Agree

I believe that academic achievement is number one followed closely by Career and Tech. Every student should have a plan A and Plan B upon graduation.

Strongly Agree

I support School Choice and I am committed to making sure the LEE COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT is the BEST CHOICE.

Strongly Disagree

I am fully committed to protecting the integrity of women's sports and ensuring the privacy and safety of female-designated spaces. Biological males should not participate in women’s athletic programs or occupy private female spaces, including locker rooms, bathrooms, shelters, or housing.

For me, my Christian faith is centered on loving our neighbors and investing in the next generation. On the school board, that looks like making sure our schools are excellent, safe, and supportive environments for every single family in our district.

Strongly Agree

I am in total agreement with the Florida Parental Bill of Rights, which outlines all the above.

Strongly Agree

I have nothing to add as he said it perfectly.

Strongly Agree

This is part of my Christian faith and I personally have been married to my wife for 49 years.

Strongly Agree

I believe that serious conditions like anorexia and gender dysphoria require comprehensive clinical treatment rather than simple affirmation. Left unaddressed, these challenges can become genuinely life-threatening, which is why we must prioritize real medical and psychological care.

Strongly Disagree

Obscenity has no place in our school libraries, and I firmly reject the idea that a book should be exempt from obscenity laws simply because a group of self-described experts claims it has literary value. Our priority must be protecting children and upholding community standards.

Strongly Disagree

Securing our elections is a matter of common sense. If we require valid identification for everyday activities like driving, flying, and banking, we should absolutely require it to protect the ballot box. Voting is the foundation of our republic, and photo ID ensures that every legitimate vote is protected.

I make it a point to vote in every single election because I firmly believe that voting isn't just a right—it is a profound civic duty. If we want strong communities, we have to show up and make our voices heard.

Student safety is our absolute highest priority, which is why I voted for the Guardian Program. This isn't a casual initiative—I have watched the intense, comprehensive training hours required firsthand. Our Guardians are thoroughly prepared to serve as a vital line of backup for our SROs, ensuring our schools remain safe and secure.
