She came to talk to the community about the vision she has for the state while answering any questions people had concerning education.

“I am running because I think every single Idaho child deserves the best possible education,” Wilson said. “I have some ideas on how we can pull the expertise of folks around the state together to make that happen.I want to put a C.A.P.E on education.”

C.A.P.E stands for Civics, Access, Partnerships and Early.

Civics is for how she believes civic engagement must be a priority. Access means children deserve equal access to an opportunity. Partnerships are enhancing learning. Early is for early childhood learning and how she believes it strengthens families.
