Tom MacArthur on Education

 

 


Tenure reform & charter schools; but public schools too

Tom believes education is the key to success for future generations, and will fight to ensure every child has the opportunity to receive the education they need to compete in a rapidly-changing world. Tom believes states, local school districts, parents and teachers are far better equipped to shape the education our children receive, as opposed to federal bureaucrats in Washington, DC. Tom supports bipartisan efforts to implement tenure reform, reward highly effective teachers and demand accountability on how tax dollars are spent. He is a strong advocate of investing in public education, but also supports the development of Charter Schools, especially in failing school districts, which create competition and give every child and their parents the ability to seek better educational opportunities.
