QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

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

Strongly Agree

Our Declaration of Independence says, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness..." All men includes not-yet-born babies in the womb. I also strongly support adoption and tax incentives for adoption.

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

School can provide direct counseling or refer a pregnant girl to a pregnancy center for counseling and ultrasound. There are options for a girl. She needs to be informed of the adoption possibilities for her baby if she's concerned of her ability to raise a child. She needs to be able to make a sound decision Not in fear for her future.


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?

The less government funding, the better. The more government funding, the more government control and marxification as we've seen in the past 100+ years. Government funding has greatly increased through the years. Yet addiction rate has increased continuously, and reading, math and science proficiencies have greatly declined to unimaginable level. For example, Casa Grande high school district's 2024 reading proficiency is 23%, math 18% and science 0%.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

Teachers should be required to instruct students on mandated curriculum even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.

Strongly Disagree

Religious liberty is America's First liberty. Without religious liberty all other rights falter.


EDUCATION

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

Strongly Disagree

Follow the money. These providers may be government funded and money machines profiting off confused, scared students. They are Not after students' wellbeing.

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

Strongly Agree

Youngsters lack self-control. Consistent, proper discipline will help students gain wisdom, understanding and self-control. They will learn to respect teachers and fellow schoolmates.

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

Why not?

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

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.

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