EDUCATION

 

                     American Higher Education System Has Spirialed Out of Control.  American Families and

                     Students are Struggling to Afford the Cost of College Tuition.  The Average College Student

                     Debt Continues to Increase Per Student.

 

                     Every child deserves a quality education! It’s no mystery that students and parents are

                     finding it tougher and tougher to pay for a college education! I will fight for increased college

                     access and affordability.

 

                     It is essential we provide our students the access to affordable, higher education.

 

                     Federal controlled education in my view "is totally wrong."

 

                     We need to give more decision making at the local level, parents, teachers, and our local schools.

 

 

                     I SUPPORT THE FOLLOWING:

 

                     Secure and modernize schools.

 

                     Create a plan to work with labor organizations to increase the amount of students who can

                     apply, and be accepted into, apprentice programs.

 

                     Partnerships between schools and business programs will give young people the “ real-world ”

                     experience. This is accomplished by providing students with technical and academic courses.

 

                     Students will receive the skills and knowledge necessary to be productive in a competitive

                     American work force.

 

                     I support expanding Education Saving Account Tax Free.

 

                     The money that is allocated for school education, should go directly to the parents school of CHOICE!

 

                     Restructure The Accreditation Process and Allow More Free Markets / Freedom of Choice.

 

                     Continue Education in College Tax-Free Savings Account.

 

                     Some college degrees can be awarded for competency to a student which will not

                     be base on classroom hours.

 

                     Work-Study Programs.

 

                     Offer More On-Line Classes.

 

                     We must enact real education reform which increases education access,

                     lower cost and gives our students a quality education that they can afford

                     that starts with reforming the federal goverment involvment.

 

                     “ Education is the critical ingredient to our long term economic success. ”
