Education technology is very important because we have a massive challenge in public schools.

In public schools, classes are bloated - it's ridiculous.

I think the key is the relationship between the superintendent and the school board.

One of my main legislative efforts in education is to help expand and replicate successful charter schools. Charter schools are public schools with site-based governance.

The public education landscape is enriched by having many options - neighborhood public schools, magnet schools, community schools, schools that focus on career and technical education, and even charter schools.

We're not proposing any shifting of funding from public schools to private schools.
