OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Strongly Agree
I agree, life is the must be preserved. Babies are a gift from God
What role should the school serve in helping a student with an unwanted or crisis pregnancy?
Councilors, but never help with an unwanted pregnancy.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
With regard to public schools, what does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Seperation of church and state means exactly how it is written. The church will not be regulated by the state. If students want to pray it is their right to be able to do so.
ECONOMY
What is your position on government funding of public education from Pre-K through college?
Our government should be doing more. I kids Re our most precious resource and we arent putting enough up for a proper education. NC polled 50th out of 50 states, this shows we have to do more.
Student loan forgiveness unfairly shifts the financial burden to those not responsible for student debt.
Strongly Agree
I made a choice to file for a loan for my education, home, and auto. Noone else is responsible for my loans.
IMMIGRATION
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) enhances the safety and security of communities by identifying and detaining illegal aliens.
Strongly Agree
Illegals use valuable resources that can be used to take care of actual citizens. They overload the welfare system, job market, housing market, and school system.
EDUCATION
Abortion and gender-affirming providers, including Planned Parenthood, should be a resource for instruction or services in the school.
Strongly Disagree
This should not be taught in schools or be available for teachers to share with students
Consequences for bad behavior create a safe and orderly environment, which is essential for student learning.
Strongly Agree
Educators should give students a thorough education in America's founding documents and cultivate American patriotism.
Strongly Agree
Students should be taught to be proud of their country and what it means to be American
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Strongly Agree
Our education here isnt the same as in California. Our state should determine our educational needs

Abstinence, consent, contraceptive reliability, physical and mental health outcomes, stages of fetal development, STDs, and the economic impacts of unplanned pregnancy.
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
American History, Civics, Language arts, Mathematics, personal finance, information technology, science, vocational learning.
Public schools should prioritize academic achievement and building character necessary to preserve American traditions and self-government.
Strongly Agree
School choice creates competition, and that competition will push public schools to improve their educational systems.
Strongly Agree
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.
