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.
