The school day kids remember
The classes that help kids discover who they are.
Arizona’s base funding does not cover the full school experience Vail families expect. The override fills that gap—supporting teachers and the programs that spark curiosity, confidence, creativity, and connection.
These are not extras. They are part of a complete education.
Music
Confidence, discipline, and belonging—one note at a time.
PE
Movement that helps students feel better and learn better.
STEM
Hands-on problem solving for the world students will inherit.
Gifted
The challenge and support advanced learners need to grow.
Advanced courses
More ways for students to stretch, prepare, and thrive.
What your YES protects
People first. Programs second. Buildings never.
By law, override funding pays for staff and programs—not construction. That means teachers in classrooms, specialists working with students, and opportunities available across the district.
