Sycamore Park is near several Vail-area shopping and entertainment centers and the fast-growing Vail Unified School District, which is earning high marks for quality and innovation. Big box stores, supermarkets, banks and specialty stores such as dry cleaners, restaurants and optical centers are minutes away.
Children's playmates at Sycamore Park are classmates at the nearby Vail Unified School District, which serves some 7,000 students from K-12.
Here, too, the future plan is for further growth. Recently, the Arizona School Facilities Board allocated $12.6 million to build new two elementary schools that will open in 2007-2008.
Not to be ignored are the district's three high schools, including the newly formed Empire High School (a charter school), one of the first in the U.S. to use laptop computers instead of textbooks.
In a recent article in Spirit, Southwest Airlines' onboard magazine, district superintendent Calvin Baker said, "Laptops are part of the fabric of everything that goes on at Empire. That's the way it should be. We all use laptops to gather information, store information and distribute information. That's the way the world turns now."
