University wants students better prepared for college work
From The Arizona Republic: Wanting a research pipeline and college-prepared students, Arizona State University officials are creating their own K-12 schools. The first ASU charter school opened last year in east Mesa, and the second one opened this fall in downtown Phoenix. Plans call for two more schools near the ASU Tempe and West campuses in coming years.
