Confront Literacy Declines and Demand Accountable Instruction!

Plummeting literacy rates across the nation prove that throwing money at bloated bureaucratic systems fails to educate our children. School board members must prioritize rigorous, phonics-based reading instruction over fads that compromise foundational learning. Fiscally responsible trustees should audit spending to ensure every dollar supports core academic excellence rather than non-educational mandates. Parents and community activists must hold leadership accountable for measurable reading proficiency and student success. By confronting union resistance head-on, our district can restore disciplined classrooms and high standards. Let us champion common-sense reforms that put students and academic achievement first.
