Thank you for your ongoing support of my work as our State's Superintendent of Public Education. We have transformed school improvement; added over $4.5 billion in annual support to our schools; substantially improved educator salaries; de-linked high-stakes tests from graduation; expanded career and technical education, and we have made incredible investments in student mental health, school meals, and safety.
As we are recovering from this global pandemic with enrollment gains, rising assessment scores, and record-high graduation rates, we continue to face a national political movement led by religious zealots who seek to attack our public schools, our educators, and the rights of our students.
With your support, I get to keep fighting for high quality PUBLIC education! This race is about public education experience -- local, state, policy, budget, and more. Thank you for giving me a chance to carry out this amazing and challenging work in service to our students, families, educators, and communities. Our recovery is strong, but there is a lot of work and innovation still in front of us!
