I believe Alaska can lead the nation in education results. I believe that granting parents power and control over school policies and budgets is the best way to support our teachers and our students. We already have schools with duplicatable models of parental control over the education system that are top performers in our state and where teachers are more effective and happier. Our one-size-fits-all school system is antiquated and can be improved when parents and teachers decide to work together to do so.
