Jon Hansen on Education

 

 


Promote competition among educational options

Hansen pointed out that despite significant spending student proficiency in English and math is lagging. He advocated for holding superintendents accountable, promoting competition among educational options (including homeschooling and non-public schools), and ensuring that primary focus remains on core education rather than what he considered excessive extracurricular spending or facilities like million-dollar artificial turf fields.
