I am committed to developing my understanding, involvement, and promotion of ESA-funded Micro-Schools. Micro-schools can be a promising environment for cultivating the Catholic faith in students. This model emerged after the pandemic, allowing families to educate their children as they see fit best. For lower-income and middle-class Catholic families, this allows their children to have an alternative educational opportunity. Through this model, students are self-directed and have more freedom and flexibility to explore their own special interests in and out of school. They also can foster communal prayer, worship, and study of the faith. My commitment is to advocate for Catholic ESA-funded Micro-schools by staying informed on political issues concerning ESA funds and Micro-schools, to conduct research on these initiatives, to explore collaborative opportunities to initiate partnerships, and to educate parents and the public on ESA funding opportunities.
