Is it really that bad for our state's educators? A WalletHub study says, yes, it really is.  

WalletHub came out with its rankings of best and worst states for teachers and Arizona ranked dead last.

Arizona was ranked as 51 out of 50 states and D.C.

Why?

  • For starters, it has the lowest projected teachers per student ratio in 2024.
  • It ranks near the bottom for spending per student.
  • Arizona has one of the highest projected teacher turnover rates.

New York ranked at the top.
