Arizona Education Funding

More from this show

Since 1992, Arizona has fallen further behind the national average in education funding, going from receiving about 90% of the national average to about two-thirds of that. We get an explanation of school funding in our state from Chuck Essigs, director of governmental relations at the Arizona Association of School Business Officials and Chris Kotterman, director of governmental relations at the Arizona School Boards Association.
