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?

The school's responsibility is to support the student academically.


ECONOMY

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

In order to make sure every child has an equal opportunity to succeed we have to work together in the form of government funding.

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

Neutral

More attention needs to be given to growing cost to attend college in relation to starting pay and employment opportunities that affect the student's ability to repay loans.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

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

The separation of church and state is not written in the constitution, the concept stems from the 1st amendment which states that" congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof". The first amendment with regard to public schools keeps school systems from promoting and/or providing funds for any single religion.


IMMIGRATION

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

Agree

Every country has boarders and rules concerning citizenship.


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.

Neutral

As s former Behavioral Support Specialist, I prefer teaching students the life long skills they need the negotiate conflict. We as adults should be focusing on the awareness of why and and when the behavior is occurring and seeking to support students with attainment of positive corrective behaviors. Our current consequences almost always contain some element of removing the student from the academic setting with the removal being the corrective action.

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

Strongly Agree

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

Neutral

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 was taught Sex Ed in school, I was only taught human anatomy and the reproductive system. My parents covered the other topics in alignment with their beliefs I believe it is the parents right to cover other topics according to their beliefs.

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

Language Arts, Mathematics, Personal Finances, Civics, Science, Vocational Learning, Physical Fitness. Art and Music.

Public schools should prioritize academic achievement and building character necessary to preserve American traditions and self-government.

Agree

School choice creates competition, and that competition will push public schools to improve their educational systems.

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 conservative Christian.

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
