Issues: Education

The next revolution (and I do not use that term flippantly) in our state must be in the area of education. Adequate school funding starts with economic development which generates more tax revenue. However, multiple real world examples repeatedly show little or no correlation between level of per student funding and student performance. Incentives, parental choice, and merit based funding must be used to enable our children to be competitive in a global marketplace. The time is right for both sides of the aisle to work together on this issue.
