Ban "hate-based ideology," other "woke" programs in schools
Eliminate Hate-Based Ideologies such as Critical Race Theory, the 1619 Project, and other "woke" programs in public schools: When children are taught to hate their country and each other, the foundation of Missouri and America is at risk.

Block federal mandates, get DC bureaucracy out of classrooms

Schools should educate not indoctrinate students
First, children need to be safe in our schools. I support school resource officers. Beyond that schools should educate not indoctrinate students.
Using schools to push agendas like political correctness or to promote political ideologies doesn't improve education.

Every child--whatever their zip code--deserves a sound, basic education, with access to a quality public school that has teachers who are well-qualified in the subjects they teach. Teachers should be paid as professionals to attract and keep the

Everyone should be able to enroll in school of their choice
Over 50% of our budget is spent on K-12 education and far too many of our graduates are not prepared to enter the workforce or pursue a degree. As a former school board member, Mike Braun knows parents are the primary stakeholders in their
children's education and every family, regardless of income or zip code, should be able to enroll in a school of their choice and pursue a curriculum that prepares them for a career, college or the military.

I support ensuring transparency in school curriculums
Parents have the ultimate say when it comes to the well being of their children. We have to protect our families and parental rights. The best form of government is self-government, and then it's the family unit.
Teachers should teach. Parents should parent. Parents have a right to know what is being taught in the classroom, and I support all measures to ensure transparency in school curriculums.

Our kids our deluged with inappropriate content
It is more difficult than ever to shield young children from material and images that would've been put behind the counter at the Kum & Go just a few years ago. Our kids our deluged with inappropriate content on television, on the internet, in social
media, and throughout our culture.For parents of young kids, it is a struggle to navigate an increasingly complicated and morally relative society and instill the values we were raised with in a culture that no longer appreciates those values.

Curtis Hill:
Money should follow the student rather than the system
As a father of five and husband to a schoolteacher, Curtis understands that Hoosier parents are concerned about the quality of education their children receive. As governor, Curtis will prioritize removing radical gender ideology and critical race
theory from classrooms so students are taught how to think, not what to think. Curtis believes that if children are taught to think critically, they will not succumb to radical indoctrination.Curtis believes money should follow the student rather
than the system to create fairness in opportunity. By investing in school vouchers, vocational training at the high school level, new print and technological resources, and incorporating new language and learning requirements,
Curtis believes Indiana can usher in a new era of educational freedom, free of federal entanglements, that prepares students for an ever-changing global economy.

Phil Lyman:
Ensure parental rights on education choices and curriculum
Ensure parental rights when it comes to education choices and curriculum in public schools. No more criminalizing parents who speak up at school board meetings.State colleges and universities should be bastions for free expression. They should
challenge students to expand their views and to broaden their comprehension of the world around them. Still, they are state establishments and, as such, should refuse to host drag shows, should ban the practice of requiring preferred pronouns on campus,
and should require U.S history and government classes. They should root out insurgent foreign ideology such as
Chinese influence, environmentalist and climate change dogma, and other unfounded and cultish creeds, including religious tenets, that require unnatural adherence.

JB McCuskey:
Empower students and families: flexibility over bureaucracy
For too long, priorities have been misplaced, causing education to take a back seat to bureaucracy.
We must provide children with the foundation they need to succeed in an increasingly global economy.
These skills, and a solid foundation, provide the crucial piece of infrastructure that job creators seek when determining where to locate their businesses.If elected, I will always work to empower students, their families and their teachers.
I will never succumb to special interest groups or their agendas that distract from the goal and will always vote to give schools the flexibility they need to make our kids' success the priority.
