QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.

Strongly Agree

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

Guidance Counselors should provide counseling as to how the pregnancy will affect the mother's life, resources that are available including emotional support, and steps to avoid unwanted pregnancies in the future.


ECONOMY

Student loan forgiveness unfairly shifts the financial burden to those not responsible for student debt.

Strongly Agree

Those who made the difficult decision not to take on crushing debt, or were responsible and lived within their mean to pay it back should not be forcibly subsidizing those who have not taken the same measures and precautions of fiscal responsibility.

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

I support the universal VPK program and think expanding it to slightly younger children would be beneficial due to the high costs of daycare. I am a huge proponent of the Bright Futures program. I do not agree with in-state tuition or taxpayer-funded assistance to non-citizens or foreign students. The seats in Florida's public colleges belong to Florida residents first.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

With regard to public schools, what does "separation of church and state" mean to you?

I believe America was founded as a Christian nation and should remain true to her founding principles and heritage. Specific dogmatic doctrine does not need to be taught in schools, but the ideals of being a good person and American citizen should not be compromised in order to avoid offending someone.


IMMIGRATION

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) enhances the safety and security of communities by identifying and detaining illegal aliens.

Strongly Agree


EDUCATION

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

Strongly Disagree

Consequences for bad behavior create a safe and orderly environment, which is essential for student learning.

Strongly Agree

Consequences are the ONLY way bad behavior can be corrected.

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

Strongly Agree

ALL students should be able to pass the Citizenship test their senior year, and be able to understand the makeup of each branch of government.

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

Strongly Agree

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

I do support Sex Ed, but not until a set age of maturity. I believe 7th grade would be appropriate.

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

1.Vocational Learning, 2. Personal Finance, 3. Physical Fitness, 4. American History, 5. Foreign Language, 6. IT, 7. Civics, 8. Mathematics, 9. Science, 10. Language Arts, 11. Art & Music (Optional Elective)

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


VALUES

Biological males should 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 Disagree

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am a lifelong Roman Catholic. I believe in treating others as I would like to be treated. I am a follower of Jesus Christ and believe He is the Messiah.

Government should recognize and support the fundamental right and essential duty of parents to direct their child's health and educational well-being.

Strongly Agree

I support the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., that people should be judged by the content of their character and not the color of their skin.

Strongly Agree

Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition.

Strongly Agree

Mental health conditions such as anorexia and gender dysphoria need to be treated, not affirmed.

Strongly Agree

School library books that have literary value, as determined by experts, should be exempt from obscenity laws.

Strongly Disagree


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree
