ASSOCIATION BLOG GREAT SCHOOLS SUPPORT GREAT TEACHERS Teachers are the single most important in-school factor to raising student achievement. As Arizona’s policymakers wrestle with tough budget decisions, they have expressed concern about how these decisions reflect the ways in which we value our teachers and support teacher pay. When our lawmakers make the choice to fund what works, high quality schools should continue to have the funding flexibility to make decisions that support great teachers and, in turn, serve the best interests of students. On the blog are three public charter school stories. As charters prove, high quality schools have the greatest impact on students and teachers, and use their resources to fund what works. www.azcharters.org/news April 2017| 12439 N. 32 nd St. | Phoenix, AZ 85032
