Recognize critical importance of public education

Q: Do you support or oppose parents choosing schools via vouchers?

A: Strongly oppose. Our founding fathers recognized the critical importance of public education, even going so far as to require state support of public schools.

Strengthen our public schools

At a young age, Connie learned from her parents, both public school teachers, the value of hard work and the responsibility of public service. As your U.S. Senator, Connie commits to strengthening our public schools. In order to strengthen Oklahoma families, we must invest in Oklahoma students by strengthening our public school system. Right now, we aren't. Connie believes every Oklahoma K-12 student, regardless of zip code, deserves access to quality public education, well-paid, quality teachers, quality textbooks to take home at night, and adequate supports that ensure success.

Education is the road out of poverty. Connie understands the role a properly funded public education system plays in ensuring that all students have the opportunity to rise to her or his individual potential. Oklahoma's students deserve more than standardized tests and haphazard "grading systems."
