Bond 2024

Union County Public Schools (UCPS) is committed to ensuring that all students receive a quality education in safe and efficient learning environments. 

On Nov. 5, Union County residents approved $39,421,448 in school bonds. This bond package addresses aging facilities at Parkwood High and East Union Middle. The schools were built in the 1950s and 1960s, and are inadequate for modern-day teaching and learning. 

This bond invests in pre-construction for a new Parkwood High School and a construction project that will relocate East Union Middle to the Forest Hills High campus. The 2024 bond builds on previous commitments and investments to provide modern schools for our students.

For Parkwood High, the funding will address design work, assessments and land surveys. 

For the East Union Middle project, the funding will provide demolition, additions and building renovations to accommodate middle school academic and athletic programming. 

More projects will move up on the priority list for capital needs and future bonds. All communities benefit when we value public schools. District improvements increase safety, support evolving educational programs and practices, modernize aging facilities and directly impact the quality of life in Union County.
