A
KTAR article quoted a spokesperson from the Arizona Department of Education
admitting that the money from Prop 123 would not be enough
to increase Arizona’s ranking substantially.
Democrats
are champions for public school resources. We have made it
a priority to hold the governor and Republican leadership accountable for
the next steps for our schools. We will be your voice here at the
Capitol.
Arizonans
have another chance speak up and speak out for our schools.The
state Department of Education is asking people for their ideas about education
for the implementation of the Every Student Succeeds Act, which will replace No
Child Left Behind in the 2017-2018 school year.
Republicans
have cut billions from schools since 2008, and now we have a chance to make it
clear that we want that to change. Our kids deserve fully funded public schools,
with up-to-date textbooks and technology, reasonable classroom sizes and quality
teachers who are earning competitive wages.
