ALL – Public policy advice: Arizona parents of course! No one has a greater vested interest in a child’s education than his/her parents. It was Arizona parents who were specifically and deliberately excluded from the discussion when special interest groups and lobbyists worked through our State Board of Education to impose radical changes upon their children’s education.
