By Tamra Farah – Contributing writerOn Sept. 24, Save our Schools turned in 141,714 petition signatures for verification in an attempt to overturn Arizona’s comprehensive version of Empowerment Scholarship Accounts, or HB 2853, thus blocking the expansion of parental choice in education.
Billions of dollars continue to be invested in Arizona’s public schools, and yet they fail to set kids up for success. From 2015 to 2020, according to the Arizona Education Progress Meter, the attainment goal was for 72% of third graders to advance to the next level of reading by the end of the school year. Instead, it merely moved from 41% to 46%, or 1% per year, during that five-year period.
But we must remind ourselves who is in the driver’s seat of a child’s education. The 1979 law that established the U.S. Department of Education states that it is the primary responsibility of parents to direct the education of their children, and it is the primary responsibility of states and localities to support that. Save our Schools does not have the rights of parents at heart in their drive to force children to conform, and often putting a round peg into a square hole.
