Issues facing Utah - Education
The State of Utah spends more money on education
than any other item in the budget. Utah also spends more
money per taxpayer on education than every state but two in
the nation. This is as it should be. As a society, our primary
objective, after securing ourselves from external and internal
threats, is to rear and educate our children. If we fail in
this endeavor, our society will deteriorate rapidly.
Any worthwhile education system must have the family as its
foundation. Children get the best start to learning when they
acquire a love of learning at home. Children learn best when
parents are part of the education. Children achieve the most
when parents and teachers, working in cooperation, set high
standards and provide the kind of environment where children
can meet those standards. Parents must always be considered
an essential part of the education process. That is why I
believe that parents should have the ability to choose where
and how their children are educated.
