- How can we attract top teachers to our schools?
-
We must take a proactive approach to help certified professionals that would be interested in obtaining a teaching credential, and help them to move smoothly through the process.
- Should schools teach creation in the classroom?
-
No. I believe strongly in the separation of Church and state. Even within Christianity there is a large variety of views on G-d, Creation, and Science. It is impossible for a school to introduce religious ideas without favoring a specific denomination.
