Equal access to, and accountability for, education means that every child should have the same access to a quality education while school administrations, teachers, and school boards are held accountable for student learning and performance without "teaching to the test" or being over-burdened with repeated standardized testing. Instead these institutions should be judged on improvement of student knowledge in the subject matter throughout the school year.

A teacher's pay should reflect their skill and their need within the community.

A quality education for our citizens is the cornerstone of our country's future and ability. America must have an educated electorate and workforce, to maintain and improve our standard of living.
