Praise the Lord; Trump won. I’m a happy soldier for the Trump campaign; here with LARA Trump. Sadly with the Dems as NC governor, lieutenant, governor, and superintendent of public instruction, we will see more of the same in our public schools and not the 3Rs.

Student Behavior youtu.be/lX1uEupmpwY?fe… via YouTube What happened to the CMS' high student behavior expectations? Teachers complain that CMS school administrators tolerate misbehavior by the same few students, leaving teachers with little to no support. #SaveCMS

It’s Time to Put Students First — Support School Choice. At one CMS middle school in Huntersville, only 13.5% of students are college- or career-ready in reading, and just 16.7% in math, according to CMS data. Families there should have alternative school choices.

NCDPI's 2024 Report Card, 38.9% of CMS students met state standard for math & 30% for reading. Plus, Meck County Commissioner Arthur Griffin cited CMS--40% of 2024 graduates had a GPA below 2.0, suggesting many students promoted and graduated w/o mastering the material.

Getting ready for the Labor Day parade in Charlotte. Need to save our schools with things that work, better behavior, stronger character formation, and focus on the basics: reading, writing, and math.

Want More Money for Teachers? Cut the CMS Bureaucracy. CMS bureaucracy keeps growing while teachers and students don’t. Cut admin, fund classrooms. Kids need teachers, not more central office staff. #PutKidsFirst

My opponents say meritocracy is a myth. I disagree. If we abandon merit, privilege and politics decide who gets ahead. I’ll fight for: ✅Academic rigor so kids can shine ✅Resources that go to classrooms, not bureaucracy Meritocracy isn’t a myth—it’s a promise. Let’s keep it.

Illiteracy is a policy choice. 54% of CMS 3rd graders are not proficient in reading. Why doesn’t CMS follow the Mississippi example where 3rd graders must demonstrate proficiency in reading before going to 4th grade? Black 4th graders moved to third nationally and Hispanic 1st.
