Vote YES on BOTH Osborn Overrides!
Osborn Schools Are Where Success Starts
For almost 150 years, thousands of Central Phoenix students have gotten their start in an Osborn School. Osborn’s schools are top notch - half are rated A+ Schools of Excellence and all rank among America’s healthiest schools. Their unique programs are well-regarded and tailored to our community - dual language classes, art, music, PE, and even Phoenix’s first public dual language Montessori School. Osborn schools also deliver for taxpayers, they’ve received a Certificate of Excellence for transparent financial reporting, balanced budgets, and independent oversight.
Why Support the Overrides?
Voting YES on the Osborn M&O and DAA overrides continues important funding for our local schools - supporting competitive teacher salaries, programs like art, music, and full-day kindergarten, and learning materials like textbooks. As the state continues to underfund public schools, local funding is necessary to fill in the gaps. Without the overrides, our students would not be able to receive the quality education they deserve.
The Maintenance & Operations (M&O) Override Supports:
-
Lower class sizes so that students get the individualized attention they need
-
Teacher salaries, so that Osborn can continue recruiting and retaining the best staff
-
Full Day Kindergarten
-
Special area classes like art, PE, music, gifted education, and dual language programs
The District Additional Assistance (DAA) Override Supports:
-
Textbooks, instructional software, and other important learning materials
-
Specialized classrooms and equipment for classes like art, music, science, and PE
-
Technology for students and staff
