TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — A for Arizona has launched a $6 million grant opportunity today to help Arizona public schools recreate programs that provide influential results for students.

The grant money is funded with federal relief dollars provided by Gov. Doug Ducey.

These funds will be distributed to eligible public school teachers, principals, or system leaders who are re-imagining education models, accelerating best practices, and innovating around community-based solutions.

“Arizona school leaders, educators, and families go above and beyond to serve K-12 students and our local communities.”

“I thank A for Arizona for their continued partnership to support kids and empower schools with resources and technical support to bring their innovative education ideas to life.”
Gov. Doug Ducey
