Arizona Mayors Roundtable

Arizona Mayors Education Roundtable: A message from Mayor Craig McFarland

Arizona mayors have a major stake in ensuring all children succeed. The Roundtable is an innovative forum for helping mayors who are committed to improving education as a top priority. Solutions-oriented meetings involve mayors and their staff, school and district leaders, and partners who come together to take action and develop cohesive strategies that address local needs.

The Arizona Mayors Education Roundtable elevates the critical role mayors can play in ensuring that local education systems better prepare youth and adults for college and career success.”
