   No platform on website, but from her about me on the website: "A former substitute teacher and strong advocate for local public schools, Angelia was elected to the Itasca School Board in 2007 and went on to serve two terms as secretary. " On Facebook on 12/17, in Jake Ellzey's endorsement of her, says, "prevent radical indoctrination in our kids' classrooms." From official campaign announcement on 10/17, states that
one of her priorities is "improving local public schools" but does not say how that will be done. Survey responses: WHAT IS BROKEN? I don?t think public schools are ?broken? but I do think we can work together to improve it. PRIORITIES: I am concerned about the emphasis on testing and how it affects the students as well as the teachers. Funding. I am concerned about ADA numbers in light of COVID. The district is still
responsible for having resources for the student whether the student is in attendance or not. Teacher retention. Not sure what the solution is but I see too many good teachers leaving the profession. FUNDING: !. I am concerned about school funding being based on ADA. It may need to increase due to factors attributed to COVID and remote learning. FINDING THE MONEY: Not sure. VOUCHERS/CHARTERS: I am
against vouchers. EVALUATING PUBLIC SCHOOLS: How many students completed their education. IGCs: Did not answer question. A-F CAMPUS EVALUATION: Need more info. ATTRACTING/RETAINING TEACHERS: We say our children are the most important investment we can make in our future, we need to put our money there. COLAs: As often as employed teachers. TRS CARE: Need more information.
TRS RETIREMENT: I?d need to see what the finance plan is for the defined benefit plan. REPRESENTING ALL CONSTITUENTS: I engage with my community. As a former school board member, I am very sensitive to issues involving education. I go to church with many educators. I hear them. RESOURCES FOR INFORMATION ABOUT PUBLIC EDUCATION: Educators, former educators, students past and present
and parents. All local voices. OTHER COMMENTS: I support public education. I will not support vouchers.
   
   Public Education is an investment in the future of our children and the future of our state. Radical leftist ideologies seeking to indoctrinate our children serve no function other than to distract and confuse our kids when they should be learning. Angelia will keep these radical policies out of schools so our teachers can focus on doing what they do best, preparing our kids for success.
