IDAHO FALLS - As Sherri Ybarra seeks a third term for state superintendent, reading proficiency for Idaho's students is her primary focus.
"As a former third-grade teacher, that's very near and dear to my heart," Ybarra tells EastIdahoNews.com.
Better parental involvement in a child's education is another focus of her re-election campaign along with attracting and retaining teachers, which has been an ongoing issue even before the COVID-19 pandemic.
Ybarra, the republican incumbent from Mountain Home, is one of four candidates vying for the position. Her opponents are Republican Branden Durst, a former state lawmaker from Boise, Republican Debbie Critchfield of Oakley, a former member of the state board of education and Terry Gilbert, former Idaho Education Association president and the only Democrat who is running.
