Protect Parents’ Rights
Parents are allies and champions in helping students be successful. It is clear New Hanover County needs to rebuild trust with our community. I believe we need to outline and remind everyone in the district that parents have basic rights when it comes to their child’s education
Strengthen School Safety
School safety is a multi-faceted concept with a simple statement that all can agree on kids and staff should be in a safe, non-violent, learning environment. The unfortunate reality is that is not always the case.
Restore Administrative Accountability
Frustrations include limiting public interactions during Board of Education meetings, along with administering surveys to our children without parent consent, curriculum that allows for political activism, teacher trainings promoting CRT ideologies, as well as justifying keeping title IX allegations from parents, and lowering standards for our students.
Expand Academic Pathways
There is no one-size-fits-all pathway for our children. In order for our students to be successful, we need to provide them with more opportunities to learn. We must expand school choice and magnet programs, offer more career and technical education programs, and prepare students not only for higher education but for trade programs.
