Becky’s plan to revitalize our schools
- More mental health services are being moved into our schools. As a trained therapist, I will advocate for services that will strengthen families rather than cause incidental harm, integrating parents in most cases.
- Focus on proficiency in core subjects. Administrative bloat is holding students back from achieving higher standards met by other districts.
- Reverse enrollment decline by addressing the reasons families are choosing other options.
- Phase in programs leading to vocational certifications and early graduation options through dual enrollment.
- Select an appropriate Ethnic Studies curriculum for the high school graduation requirement, using inclusive materials that are not based on Critical Race Theory.
- Maintain campus safety with policies that promote parent presence on campuses while protecting students from potential harm.
- Increase responsiveness to parent values and concerns.
Our children are our greatest assets. We need to anticipate their needs, provide opportunities for their growth and build an infrastucture that rewards good choices and accomplishments. It is my vision to that NLMUSD would be a model district that parents choose for their children. Students, parents and teachers all play a crucial role in a child’s education and students achieve at their highest level when all three are involved and working together.
