Arizona's student achievement not on par with education spending levels.
Last year the Arizona Education Association said the 2007 budget proposal “fails to invest in quality public education.” Real per-capita education funding in Arizona has increased 29 percent since 1996, while test scores have flat lined. This year, Governor Napolitano requested another four percent increase in real spending. Without serious reform, what do you think the results will be?
