The Sahuarita Unified School District governing board reviewed the ASBA political agenda top-five priorities and authorized district staff to submit the district’s positions to the Arizona School Boards Association.
Board members reaffirmed priorities that included equitable, sustainable and dedicated funding sources for education; funding for new school construction and capital building renewal; opposing the current voucher and empowerment model as structured; and concerns about market-driven reforms to accountability and waiver processes.
