Student Quality of Life

School should be a safe, supportive, and enriching place. That's why improving the student quality of life in AACPS is a number one priority for me. As SMOB, I'll undertake the following policies to increase the quality of life for all students:

• Mental health days each quarter for students
• Less homework in the fourth quarter, to allow students to better balance their busy schedules
• A weekly recess block for all middle schoolers
• Increased access to mental health resources in schools
• Free AP tests for students
• Give more funding to school support staff, so students can learn in a clean and supportive environment
