Under the current party "leadership", MS universities went from producing 7k to 700 education graduates per year, and we have over 2k unfilled positions. Unacceptable!
The majority has killed every bill dealing with education issues UNTIL this election year. Don’t be fooled!

KEEP GOING!
It ALL starts with education!
In the same way that a parent loves to see their child doing well and excelling, God wants you to do well and excel in every area. He takes pleasure in prospering you!

- Relentless gun violence.

Sometimes teaching can be a grind. It’s not all cute bulletin boards, inspirational lessons, and lightbulb moments. But teachers keep going. They persevere in their commitment to engage in meaningful work — to make a difference for students.
And I love them for it.
