Educational Reform

The culture war fight over our children’s education has grown to a fever pitch and continues to impede the actual purpose of our schools – educating the next generation. 

To short circuit the culture war, we call for implementation of school choice throughout the commonwealth:

  • Counties and Cities should move to funding students rather than systems, and allow funding to travel to schools based on the decisions of families rather than bureaucrats;
  • Currently existing public schools should no longer have geographic exclusivity in attendance zones, and should allow for choice throughout a county or city;
  • The state should cease its insistence on test-centric and test-metric educational models and instead help move all localities toward Teaching to Mastery.
  • Teachers should not be subjected to micromanagement from state officials nor subjected to police-state level surveillance, but instead schools should be directly accountable.
