Issue Position: Education

Statement

Dr. Lebovics is interested in our tax dollars supporting the best quality education for our children.

District 37 does not receive its fair share of its own tax dollars for its public schools. Our tax dollars leave Bergen County to pay for bloated inefficient schools statewide, while our property taxes have to be raised year after year to make up for the shortfall.

Dr. Lebovics is open to alternative schooling methods.

He knows that we should be looking at alternatives if our public schools aren't serving our children.

All alternatives should be explored, charter schools, vouchers, whatever it takes.

He knows that we should be making sure our tax dollars that are used to educate our children, be used to educate them, not to help some faceless bureaucracy stay afloat.

We shouldn't be afraid to do all we can do to help educate our children, without being afraid of entrenched special interests, and people that are used to doing the same thing year after year.
