Gov. Doug Ducey has had a rough time in the last few weeks, but some insiders argue that's just the nature of the political cycle as he campaigns for another term in his office.

More volunteers are being sought to advocate for students with special education needs who have no one in their lives to see that those needs are being met.

Gov. Doug Ducey wants agencies to reduce their budgets next year and put any savings toward K-12 public education.

It’s hard to argue the budget doesn’t focus on education when much of the new spending focuses on K-12 or university education initiatives. The fiscal year 2018 budget adds $163 million above inflation funding to schools.

Rep. Mark Cardenas, D-Phoenix, hopes to convince colleagues to approve legalizing marijuana for recreational use by adults.

We, the school district leaders in Arizona, are troubled that some of our current elected and appointed state leadership seem unwilling to provide a quality education for all of Arizona’s children.
