1. Provide a tutor for every child performing below grade level

2. Offer free breakfast and lunch for all students, regardless of income

3. Ensure opportunities to combine college preparatory academics with technical training and workplace experience

5. Support, train, and pay teachers like professionals

6. Create a safe and healthy environment in every school

7. Eliminate crumbling school buildings
