Question	Response	Comments/Notes
1. Providing state tax credits and education savings accounts to enable parents to choose what school their child attends.	S*	Taking away guaranteed funding is the only way to make a public school pay attention.
2. Reserving girls’ sports exclusively for biological females.	S*	Famale athletes are being degraded and having their futures stolen from them. It is abhorrent.
3. Separating restrooms, locker rooms, and other privacy areas based on biological sex.	S*	This is basic decency and common sense. Allowing biological men into female areas is amoral.
4. Permitting students to discuss their Christian faith with others during non-class time on school premises.	S*	More common sense. A society lives or dies on it's morality. Taking away a prime source of morality is fatal for a society.
5. Allowing school personnel to refer students to abortion providers.	O*	This is a very primal parental responsibility and right. Schools have no place in this. None.
6. Requiring signed permission (opt-in) from a parent before a student may participate in sex education classes.	S*	A school has no business putting anything sexual in front of children. This is a very personal and private thing that belongs only to parents.
7. Increasing transparency by requiring videos or documents shown to students be preserved for easy review by administrators and parents.	S*	Schools serve one of the most vital roles in our society. They must be held accountable.
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*	CRT is cultural Marxism straight from the Frankfurd School in Germany. It is a cancer.
9. Requiring teachers to use "she" to describe a biological male student who identifies as a female, even if the teacher offered a reasonable alternative.	O*	This is another version of cultural Marxism that cannot be allowed, and must be stopped.
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.	S*	This is pornography, no matter how it is presented or shaded. Furnishing pornography to minors is a crime that should be prosecuted.
