My Vision for Elkin City Schools:

We must provide parents the opportunity to be actively involved in their children's education.

• Board of Education meetings must be held at a time where parents are able to attend.
• As a Board member, I will make myself available to parents to voice their concerns and work to find solutions to the issues presented.
• We must be transparent and open about the curriculum and what is being taught at Elkin City Schools.
• Parents must have the opportunity to have a voice in the selection of the curriculum for their children.

The Elkin City Schools Board of Education must support our teachers in their efforts to teach our children.

• Teachers must be provided with the resources needed to be successful teaching their students.
• We must support teachers with high classroom standards and the ability to administer corrective action as needed.
• Teachers must be supported in their efforts to teach to individual student learning styles.

Elkin City Schools must be a place where students, teachers, and staff enjoy coming each day.

• Political indoctrination has no place in Elkin City Schools.
• I will oppose divisive, disruptive, and controversial social justice, equity, "woke" political agenda.
• Teachers, students, and staff must be able to respectfully speak freely and openly without fear of consequences or retribution.

We must be good stewards of the taxpayer dollars that fund our schools.

• Funding must be directed to the classroom to enrich our children's learning experience.
• Taxpayers are not interested in sending school administrators to Europe to experience foreign education systems.

The Elkin City Schools Board of Education needs to refocus on the fundamentals of a solid well-rounded education for our children, instead of divisive identity and social politics.
