School Curriculum

Every school in Wake County must be a safe place to learn. I will prioritize security measures, clear safety protocols, and a culture where students and staff feel protected every day. Rules and consequences need to be set in place that everyone will follow without exception.

Promote Physical Fitness

Encourage every student to get involved in sports and expand opportunities for activity through clubs, intramurals, and other outlets so more kids stay active and healthy in body and mind.
