Our Next Victory

At last night's Yes on 100 Watch Party, I was excited as the results came in.  An overwhelming majority of Arizonans voted in support of Proposition 100.  As an educator, I am grateful to the voters of Arizona for supporting our children, our teachers and our schools.

The passage of Prop 100 was especially important considering the Legislature has continuously abdicated its responsibility to provide our public schools with the necessary resources to move all our children forward. While only a band-aid, this important victory has saved our schools from facing even more challenges in the short term.

Now, the real work begins. We need to elect leaders who are true advocates for our kids and their right to an excellent public education. We now turn our attention to the upcoming primary and general elections where you will have an opportunity to do just that.

Over the months ahead, I need your help to change the direction our leaders at the state capitol have been taking us.

The voters have made it very clear that education must be a priority. I believe education must be our state's top priority. As Superintendent of Public Instruction, with your help, I will work to make education our number one focus once again.
