Education policy should be set at the local level. Parents, family members, friends and neighbors are in the best position to determine what is best for their children. I am a strong supporter of home schooling and private education as well. Here is Senate District 36 we are blessed with excellent public schools. But as a State Senator I will support tuition tax credits and/or vouchers. Families should have options other than sending their children to underperforming public schools. And the competitive pressure on public schools would make them more efficient, and require a higher level of performance.
