All students – regardless of ability level – deserve to have their learning be supported and their needs be met. More than anything, I want to see all students succeed and I am proud to work for a private institution that supports public education.

Another session, another missed opportunity to fully fund special education programs.

Arizona’s formula for funding special education will be at least 40 years old before it is adapted to reflect the effects of school choice.

Charter schools, insufficient public school funding and Proposition 305 were some of the topics in the first debate in the race for state superintendent of public instruction.

Nine months after the Arizona Department of Education notified schools it had misallocated millions in funding for special education programs, the federal government has approved a plan to correct the error.

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.

Arizona lawmakers have not adjusted the additional dollars allocated for students with special needs in at least a decade, and public schools have been left to make up the difference.
