Vote Yes on Bonds & Overrides

What are bonds and overrides?

Bonds and overrides are voter-approved initiatives that generate additional tax revenue to fund projects and operations for local school districts and community colleges. Bonds and overrides are tools that our local communities can use to provide funds for their local schools above and beyond what the state provides.

Why are bonds and overrides important?

Arizona's economy needs strong public schools, and that takes resources. Our workforce must be well-educated in order to compete regionally, nationally and internationally, and businesses must have a strong worker pool to hire from in order to want to locate in Arizona.
Funding improves outcomes. Study after study demonstrates that adequate per-pupil funding improves student outcomes in every situation, which means properly funded public schools create a well-educated population. This in turn strengthens our state economy, raises wages, and maintains property values. In 2021, most bonds and overrides added under $300 to the average homeowner's bill, making them one of the best investment values around.
Bonds and overrides provide badly needed resources. Arizona's education spending has not kept up with other states. In 2019, our per-pupil investment in public schools was only 66% of the national average, placing us 48th in the nation. Many public schools now rely on bonds and overrides to provide the most basic services, such as teachers. We can't expect our public schools to provide a world-class education without resources!
