SOSAZ Congratulates the 2026 Public School Proud School Board Candidates
At Save Our Schools Arizona, we know that strong public schools build a strong state.
School boards play a vitally important role in their districts and communities. A well-run school board sets a vision for quality education, then plays a leadership role in the community to transform that vision into reality. This November 3, Arizona voters must elect school board candidates who fully prioritize public education.
All #PublicSchoolProud candidates are listed by district in alphabetical order. Where there are 2 recommended candidates, please vote for BOTH as 2 seats are up for election.
Each SOSAZ #PublicSchoolProud school board candidate has pledged to:
- Acknowledge their role as an advocate for public education beyond school board meetings to parents, educators, community members and state policymakers
- Advocate for the Arizona Legislature to increase permanent, dedicated funds for K-12 schools
- Oppose the diversion of any portion of their district’s funding to for-profit models, including (but not limited to) charter co-location, private transportation grants, microschools, and private school vouchers
- Advocate for diversity and inclusivity in district policies voted upon by the school board, including but not limited to employee training and student interest groups
