Arizona Department of Education (ADE) is an Arizona state agency overseeing public education. It is headquartered at 1535 West Jefferson Street in Downtown Phoenix, Arizona, United States.[1]

Ratification of the Arizona Constitution created the Arizona Department of Public Education. ADE is led by the state Superintendent of Public Instruction, an elected position.[2] The current superintendent is Diane Douglas.[3]

The Superintendent of Public Education is an ex officio member of the Arizona Board of Regents which oversees public universities in the state.[4]

On April 19, 2018, the Arizona Educators United organized a vote to walkout on April 26, 2018 if a list of demands were not met by the governor. [5]
