Question Response Comments/Notes
1. Providing state tax credits and education savings accounts to enable parents to choose what school their child attends. S* The only way to make public schools better is through competition for taxpayer's funds.
2. Reserving girls’ sports exclusively for biological females. S* Anything else is ridiculous.
3. Separating restrooms, locker rooms, and other privacy areas based on biological sex. S* I'm currently pushing for the district to make all restrooms and locker rooms individual rooms only.
4. Permitting students to discuss their Christian faith with others during non-class time on school premises. S* It's called the First Ammendment.

7. Increasing transparency by requiring videos or documents shown to students [which are not part of pre-approved curriculum] be preserved for easy review by administrator and parents S
8. Providing curricula that advocates critical race theory and its emphasis on defining people as oppressors or oppressed based on group identity or privileges. O

10. Specifying in school policy that materials containing visual depictions of people engaging in sex acts or explicit written descriptions of people engaging in sex acts is not age-appropriate for the school’s curriculum and libraries.
