OTHER INFORMATION

QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

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

Strongly Agree

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

None. It is not within the mission of educating.


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 government can compete in the market place of education, but should fund equally, per pupil, competing private schools.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

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

Agree

Government should only recommend - not mandate, core educational subjects - The government should not advocate for any particular political positions, social or cultural trends, or sexual norms outside of minimal biological health.


EDUCATION

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

Strongly Disagree

They are a service in society- No business, product or service by a third party should be in the school.

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

Strongly Agree

Disruptive children should be removed from the classroom until they are able to participate without disruption. Repeat disruptors should be directed to social services and not allowed to return to the regular classroom until their needs are met and their behavior reaches the level of their classroom.

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

This is taxpayer funded. No basis for privacy or concealing. There should be a portal with public access - real time- listing all grade levels and all material taught or given to the students.

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

Strongly Agree

They should have a thorough education in America's founding documents and principles. Patriotism should not be pushed. It should organically develop.

I support Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI).

Strongly Disagree

The bill of rights establishes rights for all. Current studies show that the DEI curriculum fosters racisms, seeing injustices where none exist, and making people agitated and angry. This is a toxic and divisive political/cultural movement which has no place in the classroom. The school should promote principles of equal treatment and respect for all.

I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.

Strongly Agree

Education was supposed to be, and should be, locally controlled (specifically by the parents).

Please list in order the following priorities in relation to the role of a K-12 public school (omitting any that do not apply): American History, Art & Music, Civics, Critical Race Theory, Foreign Language, Gender Identity, Information Technology, Language Arts, Mathematics, Personal Finances, Physical Fitness, Political Activism, Science, Sexuality, Social Emotional Learning, Vocational Learning

Vocational Learning, Language Arts, Science, Mathematics, Art & Music, Civics, Foreign Language, Information Technology, Physical Fitness

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.

Strongly Agree

Which should students have: equity of outcomes or equality of opportunities?

equality of opportunities

Which type of written parental consent should be obtained before students are taught courses such as Comprehensive Sex Education (CSE)? (A) Opt-In. (B) Opt-Out. (C) None.

A, The majority of students can't read at grade level! No sex education until they can read.


VALUES

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I believe in God, objective truth and aspiring for excellence and virtues. Each individual has innate value equal to all others. I respect the freedom of each individual to chose their beliefs regardless of how strongly I believe that they are misguided.

Who is responsible for teaching sexual education to children, and what is the appropriate age when it should be taught?

The parents should teach each child according to the individual child's inclinations, curiosities and ability to comprehend.

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) -- abortion methods and side effects; abstinence; consent; contraceptive methods; human anatomy/the reproductive system; physical and emotional health outcomes; sex acts and pleasures of sex; sexual orientation and gender identity; stages of pregnancy and fetal development

abstinence; consent; contraceptive methods; human anatomy/the reproductive system; physical and emotional health outcomes; stages of pregnancy and fetal development

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.

Strongly Agree

They should be protected from anyone advocating, and prohibited from undertaking, chemical or surgical castration until they are 18.

Children have the right to be protected from sexual grooming (including drag shows and explicit materials) in schools and libraries.

Strongly Agree

Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman essential to the formation and sustaining of a civil and prosperous society.

Strongly Agree

Parents have the fundamental right to raise their child in accordance with their beliefs and values, including the right to make decisions about the child's education and healthcare.

Strongly Agree

Parents should have full and timely access to any and all records, including school and medical records, associated with their minor children.

Strongly Agree


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree

Exceptions can be made only where absolutely necessary, and only by substituting something that can clearly establish the individual's identity.


EQUALITY

Biological males should not be allowed to participate in women's sports or occupy biological women's spaces whether it be bathrooms, locker rooms, sorority houses, women's shelters, or prison.

Strongly Agree


ABOUT YOU

Have you ever been convicted of a felony? If so, please explain.

No

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

No

I voted in these primaries and general elections:

2014 General Election 2016 General Election 2018 General Election 2020 General Election 2022 General Election

Most likely voted in Republican primaries. Can't recall exactly

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

The problem is that the terms "liberal" and "conservative" have changed meaning over the past several decades . . . . and issues/positions that were historically called liberal or conservative have changed.


2ND AMENDMENT

Faculty who are licensed to carry and have had ongoing training should be allowed to carry guns at school in order to respond to an active shooter situation.

Strongly Agree


OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES

In the event of a pandemic, school districts can mandate whatever health precautions they deem necessary (including masks and vaccines) to protect students and staff.

Strongly Disagree

The population should have control of their medical decisions. My body my choice, should apply to medical freedom
