OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Strongly Agree
Children are a gift from God. Human life absolutely deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
What role should the school serve in helping a student with an unwanted or crisis pregnancy?
The school should make sure the student and her parents walk through this journey together and/or are aware of pro life organizations like Alternatives Pregnancy Center that can support young women in this situation.
ECONOMY
Student loan forgiveness unfairly shifts the financial burden to those not responsible for student debt.
Agree
Every now and then, we should be willing to come alongside our neighbors and support them, sometimes even carrying their burdens. However, individuals should pursue higher education and vocational paths they are willing to pay for or finance on their own.
What is your position on government funding of public education from Pre-K through college?
We are starting to see families get creative with how they educate their children, sometimes with minimal or no government funding. However, every student should have access to publicly funded education from Pre-K through community college.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
With regard to public schools, what does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
In public education, the 'separation of church and state' should mean government neutrality. Public schools should not endorse any particular religion, but they must also not censor private religious expression or create a hostile environment for students and staff of faith. Voluntary student-led activities, such as 'See You at the Pole,' and private expressions of faith should be welcomed just like any other lawful student gathering.
IMMIGRATION
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) enhances the safety and security of communities by identifying and detaining illegal aliens.
Agree
While U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement enhances the safety and security of communities on the whole, it is of the utmost importance that they focus their attention on people causing problems in the community, not ordinary members of the community.
EDUCATION
Abortion and gender-affirming providers, including Planned Parenthood, should be a resource for instruction or services in the school.
Strongly Disagree
Schools should refer children who want to know more about these topics to their parents or guardians for help and guidance.
Consequences for bad behavior create a safe and orderly environment, which is essential for student learning.
Agree
Consequences for bad behavior create a safe and orderly environment, which is essential for student learning. This is true. However schools should be an environment that engages children and helps them thrive.
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.
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
abstinence; human anatomy/the reproductive system; physical and emotional health outcomes; stages of pregnancy and fetal development
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, American History, Civics, Science, Vocational Learning, Art & Music, Information Technology, Personal Finances, Physical Fitness, Foreign Language
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 believe Jesus Christ is the son of God and I am in awe of God's design for us.
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
