PHOENIX â In Arizona, fewer than 10,000 students participate in empowerment scholarship accounts, school vouchers. Foster children, children who live on reservations and those attending public schools with a D or an F rating are among the 250,000 students the Department of Education says are eligible.
Pastor Drew Anderson was one of several black clergy and parents who came to the State Capital in support of Senate Bill 1452.
The bill is Republican Senator Paul Boyerâs attempt to expand the stateâs school voucher program to 670,000 thousand students; roughly half the number of children currently enrolled in Arizona public schools.
