Moore Capito: Parental choice for public, private or home-schooling

Parents should have the ability to choose the education that is best for their children, whether that's public, private or home-schooling, he said. Priorities there include providing additional assistance so that teachers can focus on teaching instead of other tasks, and providing assistance in school to children that don't have robust support at home.

Steve Williams: Make post-secondary education affordable for everyone

We also need to make sure college, post-high school, post-secondary education is affordable to everyone. One thing that's being developed here at Marshall is they're putting a program in place that students that come in and qualify for it will be able to graduate without any debt.

Steve Williams: Don't subsidize private education over public education

I think HOPE scholarships are nice and everything, but they're starting to take money away from public schools. You don't do those things--subsidize private education on the backs of public education. Our teachers certainly have to be competitive in their salaries.
