Andrew Gonzales completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2022. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Gonzales' responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Improve experiences and outcomes for ALL students, especially our Special Education, multilingual and economically disadvantaged populations.
- Prioritize teacher and staff morale and retention.
- Ensure that mental health support is easily available to staff and students across the district.
The teacher shortage is another critical issue. Our teachers are woefully underpaid, devalued, micromanaged, and mistrusted. Until we provide relevant professional development, accountability for administrators, and adequate compensation, we will continue to experience staff shortages. I will exhaust every avenue to keep our staff appropriately supported and our schools well-resourced and open.
