Issue Position

Spend Less, Think Better.
More funding is NOT the problem. Not enabling more transformational leadership is:

Through Michelle's and my experience raising our son with Autism - we have been focused for the better part of his life on understanding autism, neuroscience and neuroeducation. Neuroscience now clearly knows, that ALL our children's minds and language function are evolving -- becoming more visual in addition to being auditory. Neuro science has and can identify discrete learning systems for each person -- Visual, auditory, motor.

Through education reform we will present to students meaningful, practical and relevant lessons that are consistent with their uniquely discovered learning systems. Student Interest will surge! Literacy rates will explode! Behavioral issues will plummet, and community social health will be revitalized. Oregon Education and its economy will climb the charts. I am dedicated to bringing School Districts, Educators, parents and unions together as a State to achieve this result.
