Education

→ Provide more funding to public schools for updated classrooms, technology, textbooks, extracurricular programs, and safer facilities.

→ Raise teacher salaries and improve working conditions to attract and retain qualified educators while reducing burnout and turnover.

→ Create stronger pathways for students interested in careers like construction, healthcare, technology, and skilled trades without requiring a traditional four-year degree.

→ Expand counseling, SAT/ACT preparation, financial aid education, and college application support so students are better prepared for higher education opportunities.

→ Fund safe after-school environments, sports, arts, tutoring, and mentorship programs that keep youth engaged, supported, and on positive paths.
