Education news roundup, including: Districts say spending limit threatens teacher pay raises and more; seat opens up on Sunnyside board.
Genesis Lara A total of 191 school superintendents throughout Arizona, including those of nine major school districts in Pima County, are calling on state legislators to hold a special session to lift schools' aggregate expenditure limit.
The school administrators said failure to address the AEL would threaten districts’ abilities to cover teacher pay raises, minimum wage increases, funding for capital projects and continued work to improve school safety. Last year, state legislators narrowly met the deadline to waive the spending cap that would have otherwise instructed school districts to cut their budgets by an average of 16% across the board. This year, school districts are facing a 17% budget cut if the AEL is not lifted, the school administrators group said.
Schools Superintendent Dustin Williams"will now review and consider any qualified candidate who is interested in filling the vacancy,” the county office said in a news release.
