Array

     [vlArrayDistrict] => Array
         (
             [10] => Region III ESC
             [11] => Austwell-Tivoli ISD
         )

     [vlArrayCampus] => Array
         (
             [10] => Array
                 (
                     [] =>

             [11] => Array
                 (
                     [4.08] => Austwell-Tivoli High
                     [4.1] => Austwell-Tivoli Adm.
                     [4.12] => Tivoli Elem.
                 )
         )
