Create Better Schools
 

Create better schools for our children.

< HOME

   As a parent of three children, a leader in Boy Scouts, and a businessman who works with young people every day, Dan Roach understands the importance of a quality education for every child in the state of Washington. It is the key to a successful future for our next generation.

   During his years in the Washington House of Representatives, Dan has worked to strengthen our public education system and create better schools.
 

 Here are some examples of Dan Roach's work:

 WASL Testing

  • In 2006, Dan supported legislation (House Bill 2414) to give schools greater flexibility for the use of alternative assessments. The measure also provided more options for students who fail the WASL (Washington Assessment of Student Learning). In addition, he voted in favor of legislation to help every student achieve WASL standards and graduate on time by offering remedial classes, tutors, and expanded summer school.

 Early Childhood Learning

  • Research shows that 90 percent of human brain development occurs in the early years of life. Dan believes one of the greatest investments we can make for our children is in early learning. That's why he supported House Bill 2964 in 2006, which provides for early learning programs in our schools.

 Financial Literacy

  • One of the most important skills that we all need to know is how to properly save, use credit, balance a checkbook, and handle money. Dan believes financial literacy is an important element to help young people be successful in the real world. That's why he prime-sponsored House Bill 2152, a measure that would increase classroom opportunities to teach financial literacy to public school students.
