College is very expensive. A lot of people who want to go to college can't because they don't have the money to pay for it. I believe that people that don't have a lot of money and really want to go to college and pursue their dreams should go to college for free. It would help out a ton of people with getting jobs. People with college degrees are more likely to get a job than a person without a college degree. When people can't go to college, they are not going to get an advanced job that requires a degree and that pays more. The most recent study of unemployed workers is 48.6 percent in Alabama Don't have a college degree. Letting people go to college for free could help lower that number. To fix this problem we need to have sponsors for certain students that really need help paying for college.

This is my logo. I picked the colors red and blue to represent our country's colors. I picked the bright stars to represent Alabama's bright future in education if I am part of the state board of education. Another reason I picked red and blue is because those are the two political party colors. I picked the big font because I want people to see my name and remember it.

This is my slogan. My slogan means that if you vote for me, I will put you first and ask the people of Alabama what they want for their kids through education. The big 1st in the middle shows that I will put you first. I chose my slogan to be a circle because if I win people can use them as stickers and wear them to spread the word. I chose red and blue for the writing because it is our country's colors.

Every year when kids go back to school they all need new supplies. These prices have risen over the past couple of years. According to the National Retail Federation, "families with children in elementary through high school plan to spend an average of $890 on school supplies. That’s a record high, beating out last year by $25." This problem needs to change because when kids don't have supplies, they can do everything in school and might get held back. One way we can solve this problem is having back to school fundraisers. Like a canned food drive but with school supplies instead.

After parents drop off their kids at school, they go to work. Some parents jobs have long shifts. Kids need somewhere they can go before their parents can pick them up. This is why we need more after school programs. This would be a good idea because the kids parents could get all their work done knowing their kid is safe and not in danger of being home alone without an adult. We can start a new Act in the state of Alabama that every school is required to have an After school program or EDP.
