State Superintendent Wants to Ban Ethnic Studies

State School Superintendent Tom Horne is asking legislators to ban ethnic studies in Arizona public schoools. Horne has announced that a bill will be introduced next week that will prohibit classes “that are designed primarily for students of a particular ethnic group or advocate ethnic solidarity instead of treatment of pupils as individuals.”

The bill would give the state authority to withold 10% of state aid from any school district or charter school which violates the law.
