Issue Position

Russ Fulcher serves on the Senate Education Committee, where he's "hands-on" looking for ways to strengthen Idaho's educational system. Russ believes we must ensure that Idaho's kids are among the best prepared in the country, ready to compete in a global economy. That means making sure schools have the resources they need. Idaho's economic future depends upon this strategic investment.

Excellence in education also means ensuring parents have real choices in meeting their children's needs. Whether it's public, private, charter, digital or home school -- the success of the student must come first. Senator Russ Fulcher believes that for Idaho to succeed, we must focus on:

*Stronger Parental Involvement
*School Choice
*Rewarding Quality Teachers
*Restored Funding in the Classrooms
