Better Schools.
Stronger Communities.
Help us invest in the future of Charlotte-Mecklenburg students and schools.
Our mission is to empower communities by advocating for the approval of bonds, fostering progress through strategic investments in schools, and securing a prosperous future for children across Mecklenburg County.
Here's how we do it
Making Schools Safer
School bonds provide the funds to build modern, state-of-the-art schools with security features that will keep students and teachers safe.
Improving Student Outcomes
School bonds that help build and renovate schools in overcrowded areas will improve the quality of education for every student.
Helping our Community Thrive
School bonds benefit our entire community. To be successful and grow, Mecklenburg County needs a strong public school system.
Endorsements
Democrats, Republicans, Business Leaders, Educators, & Community Leaders all agree.
The bonds will eliminate overcrowding, create safer schools, and deliver healthier learning environments for our children.

In our county’s growing suburban areas, schools are overcrowded. In Charlotte’s established communities, schools are outdated and unsafe. The 30 transformative projects in this school bond help solve both problems. Strengthening Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools is critical to the long-term success of our county and our economy.

I taught in Charlotte-Mecklenburg schools for nearly 25 years. If we want equal opportunities and better outcomes for our students – especially our most vulnerable students – we must provide them with healthy and safe learning environments. This bond is long overdue. It will help keep our students safe and give them opportunities to learn in facilities they deserve. Please Vote Yes for our students.
