Help Pass the NHCS School Bond on November 3rd

Every school in the county benefits from this plan. Here’s how you can help.

And every local dollar goes further: if the bond passes, $116 million in private funding will help the County to pay down the bond debt. If it fails, that money goes away.

Pick one way to help below. Start small. We’ll show you the next step.

A row of modern, brick and glass school buildings with a freshly renovated facade, expansive windows, and a prominent, well-maintained sign reading “New Hanover County Schools.” The buildings are surrounded by clean sidewalks, young trees, and neatly lined bike racks, with school buses parked in an orderly line along the curb. Soft late afternoon sunlight casts long, gentle shadows, highlighting the textures of brick, metal, and glass. Photographic realism with a professional, civic tone, shot at eye-level with a wide lens to capture the full campus, sharp focus throughout. The mood is hopeful, forward-looking, and orderly, suggesting a community investing in its educational future without showing any people.

The table surface is a light maple wood, illuminated by soft, focused overhead studio lighting that creates subtle highlights on the paper and metal tools. Background elements fade into a gentle blur: neatly stacked proposal binders and a laptop with a muted screen. Photographic realism with a clean, professional aesthetic, shot from a slightly elevated angle, emphasizing precision, planning, and responsible use of the $320 million bond.
