Questions & Answers

1. How would you implement your top priority?

: Reduce truancy by having full-time police/beginers working with juvinile courts, capturing deliquent offending parents; taking onitation training of negligent child and upgrading! Give parents more choice/options for charter schools to concentrate on individual difference/needs; in older-safe buildings, but not "modernized/computer enhanced" barriers, but saturated with subject matter techniques (modern "McGuffie Reader"), with one-on-one teaching first two semester.

2. How can the School Board work with local government and the community on use of school facilities for after school programs and recreations?

Enhance/upgrade "after-school-programs" with Cincinnati's Recreation facilities by using school buildings for home-work/coaching/cramming for tests/standardized test, et.al., use advanced placement courses for grade schoolers to accelerate to high school. And college "prep" for 9-12 grades, by having special part-time school teachers-not same teachers from regular classes! Include Senior Olympic coaching! New schools concentrate on year-round "CAMPS"! Avoid too much on sports, unless it is for State-USA-Global Olympics targets, i.e. Swimming-biking-triathlon-horseback riding/canoeing!
