Erik's platform
Expand 2-year college and technical programs
We know that Omaha is home to a bevy of meaningful, well-paying careers that do not require a 4-year or advanced degree. That's why I will advocate for OPS to expand programs & partnerships with community colleges, apprenticeships, vocational, technical, and certificate programs.
More Culturally Competent Teachers, More Teachers that look like OPS Students
Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion is close to my heart and at OPS it means training ALL teachers to understand the myriad of cultures our students represent. It also means the intentional recruiting of diverse teachers and support staff.
Fiscal responsibility for strong public education
Your tax dollars go to support the largest economic engine in Omaha - education! I will ask the hard questions to make sure your money is being used wisely.
Genuine engagement with our South Omaha community
My mission is to advocate for the programs and decisions that will benefit South Omaha students. This means I will actively engage with parents, voters, and community leaders throughout my time as your representative - not just when it's time to ask for your vote.
