Move On With Reading Funding

arizona department of education logoSedona AZ (August 12, 2015) – Arizona Department of Education Chief of Staff Michael Bradley said today that the department does not want to disrupt schools anxious to submit plans for Move on When Reading funding.

“Traditionally the Move on When Reading online portal opens as the new school year starts, so there has been no delay,” Bradley said. “It has never been our intent to delay this process.”

Bradley opened the Move on When Reading program portal today. The online portal traditionally opens at the beginning of each school year. Move on When Reading is a $40 million program mandated by state law.

Arizona law requires all school districts and charters to submit a comprehensive plan for reading instruction and intervention from Kindergarten through Grade Three by October 1. State funding is provided to schools to support the implementation of the K-3 reading plans.

Bradley said he is confident that if “cooler heads prevail at the State Board of Education, we can reach an amenable intergovernmental agreement with the staff there to continue the administration of the program.”

There is an ongoing suit in the Court of Appeals to clarify authority over State Board employees.
