About Us

What is Arizona PBS Education & Community Impact?

Our team specializes in supporting educators and students in the classroom, and families at home by creating and connecting quality PBS educational content to national and common core state standards. We help educators improve student performance through evidence and research-based content that is relevant and engaging. We accomplish this through the power of noncommercial television, the Internet, radio, other media, outreach activities, and a variety of community-based initiatives.

Today, Arizona PBS Education & Community Impact provides digital resources and face-to-face community outreach throughout the state including innovative research-based workshops for early childhood.  As the educational arm of Arizona PBS Public Television, Arizona PBS Education & Community Impact is a trusted PreK-16 resource that uses the most innovative educational technologies to enrich the lives of children, students, educators, caregivers and parents through quality outreach programs and services that educate, inform, and inspire.

Individual educators, schools and districts can become members of Arizona PBS and receive special educational discounts in addition to those offered by the station.

Supporting educators, child caregivers and parents since 1983.

Mission

Through quality outreach programs, teachers, caregivers, students and children alike can benefit from the resources given. Everything provided is up to par and aligned with the state and national educational standards.

About Us
