School should always contact the parent or guardian of the student first. Parents should always be informed of such life-changing events, and a major decision about an unwanted or crisis pregnancy should be made in the safety and comfort of the home. However, if there is valid concern that the student's health or safety may be at risk at home due to the pregnancy, then the school should consult with the appropriate authorities to help verify such concerns.

Strongly Agree

Life should be valued from the point of conception to the point of natural death, and therefore it should be protected.

Strongly Agree

I believe that the government has an obligation to provide a free public education for K-12, and that funding should come primarily from state and local governments. This will allow students of all socioeconomic status to have the same access to a quality education that will prepare them to be productive members of society. Funding for Pre-K should be available for those in lower socioeconomic status.. Financial assistance for college should be also based on assessed financial needs.

Strongly Agree

Students are distracted from learning when there is disorder in the classroom. Teachers should be empowered to maintain order in the classroom, and the school system through its policies should support the school's efforts to provide discipline. Consistency of discipline is needed to make sure that children understand that action has consequences.

Strongly Agree

As Americans, we need to understand the full extant of our country's history, and how this country was founded. So, we should all understand the documents and concepts that made this country possible.

Agree

While there is a role of the federal government to ensure the welfare of the people, including their preparedness for being productive citizens, there is no explicit mandate for the federal government to provide for the education of all people. That should fall on the individual states and communities.

Absolutely not.

I do believe that parents should have a right to choose what educational opportunities to pursue for their children, and funding should be available to assist in parents being to access these alternative opportunities. However, I do believe that public education is still essential and should not be diminished in importance. Not every city or county will have the opportunity to have a charter or private school within a reasonable distance.

I believe that equality of opportunities is needed to make sure everyone has a chance to succeed in life. Having equity of outcomes involves stratification of opportunities so that some people may get opportunities while others do not. That inherently is not fair.

Opt-In, and only if the content of the course is first conveyed to the parents for review.

The decision should ultimately be made by the elected school board members, after they receive guidance from the community. A community committee is only advisable if the makeup of the committee is truly representative of the people, and not just a panel of self-proclaimed experts.

Strongly Agree

Disagree

We have learned from the last pandemic that there is wide-reaching consequences from mandates. Parents and teachers can weigh their personal circumstances to determine what safety measures they or their children need to take. The school district can provide guidance and environmental changes in the classroom to make sure everyone can learn in a safe manner.

No

No

I believe that there is only one God who created this world, and that, because of the sin of Adam and Eve, we are all born with sin in our hearts. God sent His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross for everyone of us, so that those who confess that Jesus is Lord can have eternal life and have fellowship with Him. Humans can never reach the standards of God, and there is nothing that we can do that is good enough to save ourselves from the consequence of our sins and from Adam's original sin. Only Jesus has that power, through his death on the cross.

Strongly Agree

Children may not truly understand the permanent consequence of physical alterations to their bodies. Cross-sex hormones can permanently alter the development of the body during puberty, and it is still unclear what kind of psychological effects there may be from using cross-sex hormones in puberty.

I believe that children in middle school is the age range that sexual education should begin. There is not one set age when that takes place. Instead, it should be based on the individual child's emotional maturity level and cognitive ability to understand the content. Otherwise, it can be unnecessarily confusing.

Schools should focus on educating students about the biological differences between man and woman and the scientific understanding of sexual development and reproduction. Abstinence should be taught as the best way to prevent pregnancy, and protection from sexually-transmitted disease should always be taught. The point of sexual education is to help children understand how life is created.

Strongly Disagree

I believe that voting is a privilege that is given to people who are born here or who have earned their citizenship through naturalization. Everyone is able to obtain a photo identification in this day and age. There should be no hindrance to obtaining a photo ID.

Strongly Agree

Biological males have an inherent physical advantage over females when it comes to playing sports, and there is even a risk of physical harm if males play contact sports with females. Males have no place in female spaces. Areas like the bathroom, locker room, or bedroom are places that women are most physically and emotionally vulnerable. These areas should be protected from the intrusion of biological males.
