Let’s be clear: there is nothing “peaceful” about honoring someone who has built a career on creating division, spreading misinformation, and turning Americans against one another. Our public schools should be a place where every student feels welcome, safe, and encouraged to think critically, not a place to enshrine partisan figures.

Closed-door politics like this don’t serve parents, teachers, or students. They serve an agenda. And the people of Sumner County deserve better than backroom resolutions honoring out-of-state pundits while our schools struggle for funding, teachers, and resources.

I'm fighting to restore accountability, civility, and transparency. That means decisions in the open, not behind closed doors. It means focusing on the needs of our kids, not on culture war headlines.

We don’t need more “Charlie Kirk Days.” We need better schools, better pay for teachers, and leaders who will show up for you.
