Arizona Candidate For Governor Mayor Scott Smith Higher Education Standards and Expectations

Mayor Smith is the only Republican candidate for Governor that supports Governor Brewer's higher education standards for our children. In case you missed it, below is an email from our campaign on higher education standards and expectations.

Here is a recent quote from AZCentral from Mayor Smith on education: "As a Conservative, I believe strongly that education is best governed at the local level, far from Washington. Achievement standards should be determined by the states. The curriculum used to meet these standards must be set by the state and local districts, and should be flexible to allow our teachers to adjust their teaching to recognize the unique needs of schools and students. I believe the Arizona College and Career Ready Standards accomplish these objectives, and I support their implementation. We owe every child in Arizona the opportunity to start their careers or higher education ready to succeed." We need your voice, we need your time, and we need your financial support.
