Issue Position

Jason believes all students should have access to a high quality public education, including early childhood education, higher education, and adult continuing education.

Jason is a lead sponsor of legislation to review and update the state education funding formula (Chapter 70) to make it more adequate and equitable for all communities and all students.

Jason believes in having comprehensive universal pre-K available for all children, in order to provide the best possible start to all children so that they may succeed in school.

Jason believes that the state should meet its commitment of providing a minimum level of state funding to K-12 public education, which would immediately increase education funding for communities such as Stoneham and Wakefield.

Jason understands the value of ensuring that all students with disabilities are provided with the resources they need to have access to our strong public education system.
