Platform  Improving the state of higher education in LA

As Your Next Queen
As Miss Black Louisiana USA 2012, I will strive to improve the state of higher education in Louisiana. Although this issue does not have textbook answer, I have found several ways I can make an impact: The need of a strong foundation of early childhood development is one way to improve higher education success.

As part of my platform, I will strive to inform citizens of the importance of early childhood development and how it affects their child and Louisiana’s future, and I will continue to convey the importance of improving literacy levels in Louisiana’s poorer communities to ensure our students are prepared for higher education, thus trying to avoid the draining of one of our state’s greatest accomplishments, the TOPS program.
