| Collapse all
- Student Outcomes: Our students deserve to go to school in a welcoming and safe environment. Their creativity and academic rigor should be fostered, and they should be presented with post-educational options ranging from workforce entry, secondary education, and trades.
- Financial Responsibility: As an accountant and business executive, I know about bookkeeping and making ends meet. In the ever increasingly difficult financial world of public education in Ohio, I'm dedicated to working with community stakeholders to find sustainable solutions to CPS’ budgetary challenges.
- Supporting Teachers: Our teachers work long hours, for not enough pay, and frequently feel undersupported. We must advocate for our teachers, and work to support them. If our teachers are stressed and overworked, our students see worse outcomes.
