In this video, we sat down with public school administrators from around the state of Arizona to discuss the looming negative impact from the Arizona public school spending cap (AEL). This aggregate expenditure limit is a 40 year-old policy that forces public schools in Arizona to make budget cuts every year. Typically, the state legislature has passed one-year waivers to avoid financial crisis. However, without any meaningful longterm fix in place, every year schools have to plan for potential cuts. This affects their ability to provide Arizona students the highest quality of education possible and spreads anxiety among staff and parents.
