TL;DR Summary

Arizona has implemented a pioneering effort to offer private school subsidies, known as school vouchers, to all students, making it the first state to do so. The program, which provides an average of $7,200 per student annually, has grown rapidly since its launch last year, with enrollment projected to reach 100,000 by next summer. Other Republican states are also moving towards universal voucher programs. Supporters argue that vouchers give families more choice, while critics argue that it diverts public education funding and lacks accountability.
