The Reform Party SUPPORTS equal access to and accountability for education.
Equal access and accountability for education means that every child should have access to a quality education. It also means that school administrations, teachers, and school boards must be held accountable for student learning and performance without “teaching to the test” or being over-burdened with repeated standardized testing. Teachers should be paid in a way that matches their skill and criticality to our society.
A quality education for our citizens is the cornerstone of our country’s future. Without an educated electorate and workforce, our nation will not be able to maintain and improve our standard of living.
