Candidate Visits to the Vail School District

The Vail School District always welcomes visits and the opportunity to discuss education in Vail with any legislative candidate.

Senate candidate Patricia Fleming recently attended a School Board Meeting and also visited the district office, where she spent time discussing issues with staff members.

In the past year, Senate Candidate Frank Antenori and House Candidate Ted Vogt also took time to visit schools in Vail and discuss issues with staff.

Citizens in the Vail School District are encouraged to research each candidate, consider the candidate’s position on education and related issues, and VOTE.
