Access to Education

Opposes school vouchers for private institutions and said, "It does rob the schools most in need — those over 25% performance —  usually in areas of high poverty, often in rural areas where there aren’t private schools for that amount of money."

Was inspired to run by the progress of the school system as students come out of the difficult times caused by COVID.

Believes the school system reflects the economic disparities throughout Troup County.
