Yolanda Flowers on Education

 

 


Funding for public schools is crucial, use money lottery

Yolanda is proposing the Lottery to fund our schools. Money from the lottery will fund better built schools with clean, filtered water, cleaner air system, and two nutritious meals. Funding for public schools is crucial and will be greatly increased by funds from the lottery. More funding will also help to increase teacher pay. Increased teacher pay will attract more teachers to the profession. Every student, upon entering school, is to be given a psychological evaluation to site any learning disabilities by the age of five. This will help the teacher, along with the psychologist, to better design a curriculum for the students and develop an Individualized Education Plan (IEP). This plan will follow the child to ensure they are successful through their education program.

Schools must be desegregated & become more diverse

Schools must also be desegregated. The bias on our public school systems can still be felt today, and Yolanda will ensure that schools become more diverse.

Supports school choice if parents feel child learns better

1819 News asked Flowers if she supported school choice. "If the parent feels that the child learns better at the school then yes," Flowers said. "I hate to say that." Flowers said that she would like for everyone to get a quality education at every school and that there are no "failing schools" but achieving that is going to take some time.
