About Vail School District No. 20

Vail’s fast-growing K–12 network uses several physical patterns across a system with no universal feeder. Many students move from K–5 elementary schools into middle school and then a comprehensive high school, while K–8 campuses preserve longer continuity and specialized schools create other routes. Address, open enrollment, and program entry can all alter the number of campus changes.

The district also maintains distinct remote and alternative settings. Vail Virtual Academy provides a K–8 online school, Vail Innovation Center serves grades 6–12 through online and blended learning, and Pantano High School offers a smaller alternative secondary environment.

Each option changes the student’s primary placement at a different grade point. Vail Virtual, the Innovation Center, and Pantano High are separate routes with distinct operating models.
