Students aren’t the only ones anxiously awaiting their grades — schools are too. State law requires all Arizona district and charter schools be assessed and given a letter grade by the Department of Education. This week, “3Ps in a Pod” hosts, Angelia and Donnie, discuss the newly amended evaluation process with Chris Kotterman. The Arizona School Boards Association's Director of Governmental Affairs shares why the “report card” should include more than test scores. Mark your calendar for next week’s episode when we’ll discuss the importance of carefully navigating holidays in the classroom. As always, don’t forget to subscribe, rate, and review us on iTunes!

The dominoes are falling in Congressional District 9 after Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton announced his campaign to run for Congress. Arizona schools are upset by the letter grades issued by the Arizona Department of Education and the Board of Education.
