Education & school choice Leans agree· stated position

Statement: "Public money should follow students to private, charter or home schools (universal school vouchers)."

Pritchett rejects the argument that Florida's expansion of parental choice has weakened public education, saying that view is a misconception.

"I think that's the misconception, that somehow parental choice has dismantled public education"

Library and classroom materials Leans agree· stated position

Statement: "Parents' objections should be enough to pull a book or lesson from a school, even when other families want it kept."

On library materials, Pritchett says the district must follow state requirements on age-appropriate content and notes that families who want a removed book have other options, such as public libraries.

Teacher and staff pay Leans agree· based on record

Statement: "Raising teacher and staff pay should be the district's top budget priority, even if other spending has to be cut."
