QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not be a resource for instruction or services in the school.

Strongly Agree

Planned Parenthood and other organizations that promote abortion should have zero access to students in school as the majority of students are minors.

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

Strongly Agree


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

At school, students should be able to speak freely and civilly about matters of conscience and faith, including Christianity.

Strongly Agree

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


ECONOMY

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

Strongly Agree

As a Civics and Economics teacher, I strongly agree that free enterprise and private property are essential to a fair, productive economic system.

School districts should be able to use taxpayer money for lobbying the state legislature.

Disagree

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

Did not answer


EDUCATION

What is the function of the local school board?

To protect the interests of students, parents and taxpayers in what would otherwise be a completely insulated bureaucratic institution by providing oversight, transparency and accountability.

Who should have the authority to set curriculum and determine resources used in those curricula?

A parent/educator task force which should be reviewed and approved by the school board before implementation ensuring all materials are in concordance with state law.

When should parents be restricted from speaking in school board meetings?

Never - parents have a right to express their grievances during school board meetings. Recording of public comments should also be made available to the public.

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

American History, Mathematics, Science, Language Arts, Personal Finances, Information Technology, Vocational Learning, Foreign Language, Physical Fitness

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 do not believe that either of these subjects should be taught in schools. If parents would like to have their child learn about sexuality or social emotional learning, there should be an after school or summer program that ensures these teachings are OPT IN only.

The loss of local control in education is too high a price to pay in exchange for federal dollars.

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


2ND AMENDMENT

Teachers who are licensed to carry should be allowed to carry guns at school.

Agree


OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES

Under what circumstances (if any) should schools be allowed to require vaccinations?

None - the religious exemption should remain in place.

I support mask mandates.

Strongly Disagree


ABOUT YOU

Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized in either civil or criminal court for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.

No.

A candidate's personal moral values should not be relevant when considering a candidacy for elective office.

Strongly Disagree

When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to foreign policy and religious liberty, which of the following best describes you overall?

Conservative

Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?

Did not answer


VALUES

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am a Christian who believes and adheres to Biblical Worldview. I also believe our children were each created for a special purpose and my philosophy toward education is to help each student discover their purpose so that they may live a full, rich life of happiness and success.

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?

Parents are responsible for deciding when to teach their children sexual education. I do think it is important for students to learn biology and reproductive health but from a scientific standpoint only.

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 and reproductive system only - I do not support teaching sex ed, I do support teaching biology and human anatomy.

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

No school official should be involved in the sexual transitioning of a student, including the use of alternative names and pronouns.

Strongly Agree
