About
Yes for New Hanover’s Schools is a grassroots coalition of parents, business leaders, and neighbors working to pass the $320.5 million school bond this November so every school in the county is safer and stronger.
Why This Bond Matters
Many of our schools are decades old, with safety, space, and maintenance problems our kids and teachers face every day. This bond rebuilds, repairs, and replaces schools across the county. Every student will benefit, not just a few. And it’s a smart deal: if it passes, private funding will contribute up to $116 million towards the County’s debt which lowers our overall tax burden.

“My daughter’s school is older than I am. This bond fixes the real problems: major safety concerns, crowded classrooms, doors that don’t lock right. I want her learning in a building that’s safe, not falling apart.”
Hope D.
“I don’t vote for every tax increase. This one’s different. For about five dollars a month, we rebuild schools across the county and bring in $116 million in money. That’s a smart deal.”

“Trask Middle has served families for generations, but it’s worn out. My son deserves a school built for today. And this bond doesn’t stop at one building. Nearly every school in the county gets better.”
Hope D.
“My boys are still in elementary school. By the time they reach high school, I want those buildings ready for them. Voting yes now means they grow up in schools we’re proud of.”
