Strengthen Family and Community Partnerships

Strong schools depend on strong relationships with families.

Schools can’t do it all alone, and they shouldn’t have to. When families and community members are active partners in education, students benefit across the board. As a former pastor, coach, and teacher, I understand the power of connection.

I will promote policies and outreach efforts that make it easier for families to engage in their children’s education. I’ll also work to strengthen partnerships with local businesses, churches, nonprofits, and mentors who can support schools beyond the classroom.
