Accountability. Addressing everyone to take Accountability for their own actions or lack there of.
Very seriously. I would never want to see any curriculum, books, programs, etc be removed from any class.
In order to ensure this, the school board should receive monthly account statements detailing how each subject is being met. The schools must work hand in hand with the board in order for this to succeed.

No. I've been in the military. I've seen how the government over spends and if they can over spend on a lot of pointless items and send billions to countries overseas, then they have the money for additional teachers, administrators & staff.
Advocate for more teachers and a stronger curriculum/grade system.
