I am grateful to be raising my family here in Pleasant Grove, Utah. We have strong family values that are critical to a healthy society. I understand the issues facing families in today’s uncertain world. With the rise of technology and mental health issues, we need to be supportive of what families need to stay strong and raise healthy, productive children.
Education funding needs to become a priority, especially with the population growing so rapidly. I know parents need to have control and choices when it comes to their children’s education. I also believe we need to support our public school system where the majority of kids attend school. Legislating education bills and mandates without providing the means of funding hurts our schools and our children. We need to truly understand how legislation affects the classroom. Our teachers, in all sectors of education, need our support.
Our children are the future of Utah and our Country. We need to discuss all options to improve the quality of education our children receive.
