PEORIA UNIFIED’S LATEST SPOTLIGHT ON EXCELLENCE<br />

Tax Credits Support Much More for Students<br />

Tax credit contributions play a very<br />

important role to help fund extracurricular<br />

activities for students throughout the<br />

district. Arizona tax law allows individuals<br />

to make up to a<br />

$200 donation and<br />

those iling jointly<br />

to make up to a<br />

$400 donation.<br />

Each year, the<br />

district makes a<br />

huge push to build<br />

awareness of the<br />

tax credit program<br />

by reaching out<br />

to our parents<br />

and community<br />

members.<br />

Don’t look now; it’s legislative<br />

season again. Staying<br />

abreast of what’s going on<br />

at the state<br />

legislature<br />

i s n o t a l -<br />

ways easy.<br />

But the consequences<br />

o f d e c i -<br />

sions made<br />

i n t h o s e<br />

fe w s h o r t<br />

months can affect our<br />

schools, and therefore our<br />

children, forever. Parents<br />

must stay informed and<br />

engaged.<br />

For all the talk about “local<br />

control,” Arizona’s <strong>lawmakers</strong><br />

exert a lot of power<br />

over school districts, primarily<br />

in terms of how<br />

much - or how little - funding<br />

we receive and how we<br />

can use those funds. At the<br />

same time, they control<br />

how much revenue the<br />

state collects to support<br />

K-12 public education.<br />

Voter beware: <strong>lawmakers</strong><br />

claim to be for<br />

education. For example,<br />

<strong>lawmakers</strong> who cut funding<br />

for Career and Technical<br />

programs in our<br />

schools last year are very<br />

busy congratulating themselves<br />

for restoring (most<br />

of) it this year.<br />

Overall in 2015, the district received<br />

$1,635,747, the second highest amount<br />

to date — $59,000 more than 2014, but<br />

$4,826 less than the highest record amount<br />

in 2013.<br />

W e w o u l d<br />

like to thank the<br />

community for<br />

the incredible<br />

support . Our<br />

students can<br />

ex p e rience a<br />

wide variety of<br />

extracurricular<br />

a c t i v i t i e s<br />

which enriches<br />

t h e i r ove ra l l<br />

Community Awareness is Encouraging<br />

Kathy Knecht<br />

Governing Board<br />

More than $365,000 of tax credit contribuons was directed to field<br />

trips in 2015 — such as Jessica Slade’s kindergarten class from Sunset<br />

Heights Elementary vising the World Wildlife Zoo.<br />

e d u c a t i o n a l<br />

experience.<br />

I am encouraged by<br />

the rising level of awareness<br />

and understanding<br />

by parents in our<br />

community. People seem<br />

to be truly thinking critically<br />

beyond sound-bites<br />

and political partisanship<br />

to truly understand the<br />

issues. I am also made<br />

hopeful by education rallies<br />

at the state capitol<br />

and the passage of unprecedented<br />

numbers of<br />

local school elections in<br />

2015. Two great resources<br />

for information on education<br />

legislation are Expect<br />

Student Artwork Selected for<br />

Gallery by Peoria Mayor<br />

Peoria Mayor Cathy Carlat<br />

recently launched a new arts<br />

program to encourage students<br />

from kindergarten to eighth<br />

grade to create masterpieces to<br />

showcase in Peoria’s City Hall<br />

lobby and ofices.<br />

Believing that a city in not<br />

complete without a strong<br />

representation of the arts, the<br />

Mayor held a reception at City<br />

Hall for 27 students, and their<br />

family members, whose artwork<br />

will be on display for six<br />

months. The gallery will display<br />

new student artwork during the<br />

irst semester of the 2016-17<br />

school year.<br />

Art teachers and students<br />

interested in participating in<br />

the program can contact Andre<br />

Licardi, Cultural Arts Coordinator<br />

for Peoria, 623-773-5193 or<br />

andre.licardi@peoriaaz.gov.<br />

Country Meadows Elementary students Alyssa Chrisan, Ava Anderson and Ariah<br />

Salas had their artwork selected by City of Peoria Mayor Cathy Carlat and City Council<br />

members for display in a City Hall.<br />
