What is the highest level of education that you completed, and where did you get that degree?
Why isn’t this question about “life experience?” Lots of Ph.D.’s have ruined public education.
Why are you running for the school board?
To help remove the union control and political activism in our classrooms. To restore parent/teacher control over what our children are learning and when they learn it. To store the ability to think critically about facts and circumstances instead of reacting from emotions. Schools are currently creating children who can’t cope with the world because they are being taught to be guided by their emotions.
What makes you a good candidate for the board?
I’ve been advocating for parent and student rights in education for over a decade. I’ve sued FCPS and have a proven record of fighting for what’s right for parents and their children. I don’t believe any of us co-parent with government and I don’t believe in identity-driven education.
Please name a public leader you admire and explain why.
This question isn’t relevant so I respectfully pass.
What is the most important issue facing your school board, and what would you do about it if elected?
School boards have abdicating their responsibilities and duties to do what is best for a child’s education. There is too much focus on emotions, sexuality, racial division and political activism. I want to remove all of that from the classroom. These are family topics of discussion, not government school discussions. Government has no place teaching its preferred ideologies. As a matter of fact, I’d say it’s illegal.
How concerned are you about school safety, and what if anything should be done to improve it?
I’m extremely concerned. Restorative justice has removed the ability to properly discipline students. Restoring consequences for bad behavior is a priority.
Do you have any concerns about the way history is taught in your district’s schools, and if so, what are they?
We don’t teach history without infusing emotions and racial bias, that’s very concerning. Children graduate not knowing we are a country founded on Judeo-Christian principals. We teach them to believe America was founded on slavery and white supremacy. That should bother every parent and taxpayer funding those lies.
Do you think there are circumstances when books should be removed from school libraries, and if so, what kind of books should be removed?
Yes I believe certain books have no place in a school library. We recently got “Gender Queer” removed from one of our school libraries. It’s not just vulgar, it meets the federal definition of “pornography.”
