5 Minutes for Families

Hypocrisy Hides

Hypocrisy: “The practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one’s own behavior does not conform.” While Arizona officials demand ESA families clear burdensome hurdles to justify purchasing curriculum and biographical history books, some school...

The State of Educational Freedom

Parents want oversight of their children’s education; and they have the right to it. They also have the responsibility of educating their children. It’s not a conservative or liberal value, it’s a parental prerogative. Arizona law affirms this right to ‘direct the...

A Lesson in Deceit

Don’t forget to vote! Arizona’s Primary Election is next Tuesday, July 30. More information at www.azvoterguide.com.  Opponents of educational freedom provide a lesson in unethical tactics and the vigorous manipulation of facts. The title of the class could be ‘A...
