| "Education should be a right, not a war." |

| JOSIAH JAMES INGALLS |
| FOR TEXAS STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION DISTRICT 5 |
| 2010 |
Josiah James Ingalls promotes awareness of the many forms of child abuse and neglect, understands the biased division of educational funding and has dedicated himself to helping improve all areas of Texas education. He is also the President of the School For All Children Act, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to raising awareness of educational neglect. Josiah James Ingalls sees the lack of a right to an education as well as the need for medically accurate sex education programs as motivations to run for office. According to Josiah James Ingalls, “A protectable right to an education in Texas is my top priority." He adds, “I feel that one of the biggest problems within Texas education is that the State needs to adopt legislation that would guarantee a legal, protectable right to an education for all children from first grade until the age of 18.” Josiah James Ingalls has also spoken out on the fact that there is no oversight and regulations to ensure that homeschoolers are indeed being educated due to Texas versus Leeper, a poorly written law that gives no consideration to educational neglect or consideration to the best education possible for the child. If elected to the State Board of Education District 5 Josiah will: Give a voice to the people who have been ignored by the SBOE; Fight for the issues too politically charged for most elected officials; Help prevent corruption and keep lobbyists from interfering with Texas education; and Strive to give Texas families the education their children deserve. Josiah Ingalls understands that the challenges that face Texas education will require us to lay our differences aside and come together in a bi-partisan way for the best interests of Texas children, but together we can make it happen. |
