Excellence starts in Zone 4.

I support school choice. Every family should have the freedom to choose the best educational environment for their child. Competition breeds excellence—and it’s time we prioritized student outcomes over bureaucracy.

Our curriculum should unite—not divide—students. I support teaching true history, civics, and critical thinking, not ideologies that promote resentment and division. I oppose incorporating curriculum like Project 1619 that promotes Critical Race Theory in Oregon Public Schools. 

 I support restoring graduation standards that require students to demonstrate proficiency in essential skills. A diploma should mean something. We are doing a disservice to students by lowering expectations. Let’s raise the bar and prepare students for life beyond high school. 

I support making school curriculum more easily accessible to parents (e.g., posting it online) Parents deserve easy access to curriculum materials. Transparency builds trust and strengthens the parent-school partnership.

I support schools notifying parents if their child chooses to be identified by a different pronoun at school.  Parents must be included in important decisions affecting their children. Transparency and communication are key to student well-being.

I oppose teenagers receiving reproductive or gender-related care at school without parental notification.  Parents should be involved in their children’s healthcare decisions. These are serious matters that should never be kept from families.

I oppose SB1583, which gives the state more control over curriculum and school materials. Local school boards and communities—not Salem—should decide what’s best for their students. I stand for local control and parental involvement.

I oppose offering books with sexually explicit LGBTQ+ themes at K-12 public school libraries. Sexually explicit content, regardless of theme, does not belong in our schools. We must protect the innocence of children and respect family values.

I oppose the current comprehensive sex education in Oregon public schools. I support age-appropriate, factual sex education with full parental consent. The current curriculum oversteps and often promotes ideology rather than health education.

I oppose biological men competing in women’s high school sports. I stand with girls and women. Fairness matters. Biological males should not compete in female sports categories. I do support the idea that every kid should be able to compete in athletics.
