Public participation in board meetings
The Phoenix Union High School District Governing Board maintains the following policy on public testimony during board meetings:[5]
" | All regular and special meetings of the Board shall be open to the public. The Board invites the viewpoints of citizens throughout the District, and considers the responsible presentation of these viewpoints vital to the efficient operation of the District. The Board also recognizes its responsibility for the proper governance of the schools and therefore the need to conduct its business in an orderly and efficient manner. The Board therefore establishes the following procedures to receive input from citizens of the District: A. Any individual desiring to address the Board shall complete a form (Request to Address Board) and give this form to the Superintendent prior to the start of the Board meeting. B. The Board President shall be responsible for recognizing speakers, maintaining proper order, and adhering to any time limit set. Questions requiring investigation shall be referred to the Superintendent for later report to the Board. Questions or comments on matters that are currently under legal review will not receive a response. C. If considered necessary, the President shall set a time limit on the length of the comment period. D. Any citizen who wishes to appear before the Board regarding an item on the agenda, as well as items not on the agenda, may have an opportunity to appear before the Board. Discussion shall be limited to three (3) minutes, unless the Governing Board President determines that a shorter time is necessary to expedite an orderly conduct of the meeting. In the event that an individual(s) or group(s) appear before the Board to present similar information that is repetitive or substantially repetitive from meeting to meeting, the chair may direct that the individual(s) or group(s) submit their concern(s) and/or information in writing for Governing Board review. E. Personal attacks upon Board members, staff personnel, or other persons in attendance or absent by individuals who address the Board are discouraged. Policies KE, KEB, KEC, and KED are provided by the Board for disposition of legitimate complaints, including those involving individuals. Upon conclusion of the open call to the public, individual members of the Board may respond to any criticism made by an individual who has addressed the Board. F. All presentations must be given in person. No electronic presentations will be allowed. The Superintendent shall ensure that a copy of this policy is posted at the entrance to the Board meeting room, and that an adequate supply of forms is available.[6] | " |

Academic performance
Proficiency assessments
Each year, state and local education agencies use tests and other standards to assess student proficiency. Although the data below was published by the U.S. Department of Education, proficiency measurements are established by the states. As a result, proficiency levels are not comparable between different states and year-over-year proficiency levels within a district may not be comparable because states may change their proficiency measurements.[10]
Mathematics
The following table shows the percentage of district students who scored at or above the proficiency level each school year:[11]
