Dave Lent
Senate 33
Hometown: Idaho Falls
Occupation: Retired nuclear facility training manager
Statement: “Having also served 12 years on the District 91 school board and professionally as a nuclear facility training manager, I have developed very strong insights concerning our public education system. We have a system that is designed for college prep when only 40% of our population graduates from college. We need to reevaluate the use of our education dollars and the use of our students’ time preparing for life.”
