As major sources of information for much of Arizona, you surely should be distressed by your readers' lack of scientific information. But they only "know what they read in the papers." And then they write letters. Your papers should not report...
School fund rules hard to follow
To help the public understand how a teacher might make the decision to violate district finance policies, I offer the following scenarios that may have played out on the Yuma High School campus. - A teacher requests a purchase order for merchandise...
