A General Obligation (GO) Bond is one way local governments pay for major public projects that will serve the community for many years. These projects can include schools, roads, parks, libraries, and other public buildings.

Instead of paying the full cost all at once, a GO Bond allows a county to borrow money and repay it over time.

If approved by voters in November, GO Bond funds can only be used for the capital projects listed in the bond proposal. They cannot be used for everyday operating expenses like teacher salaries, classroom supplies, or utility bills.

The proposed Cabarrus County Schools GO Bond will appear on the November 3, 2026 ballot.

✅Gather School Supplies: Elementary and middle school supply lists are available online. Shopping early helps students begin the year prepared and ready to learn. Find your school's list at www.cabarrus.k12.nc.us/schoolsupplies. As a reminder, high school supply lists will be provided by individual teachers during the first days of school.

✅Check Your Transportation: If your child will ride the bus and you did not complete a transportation request form prior to school getting out in May or when you enrolled your child this summer, please be sure to request transportation through your child's school if you haven't already. Bus passes will be available at your child's Open House. Bus route information will be uploaded to the Edulog Parent Portal beginning August 3.

✅HIGH SCHOOL SCHEDULES: 2026-27 schedules for high school students are still being finalized as school counselors continue balancing course requests, graduation requirements, staffing allotments, class sizes, and scheduling conflicts for all students. We appreciate your patience as this complex process continues throughout the summer. While work with schedules will continue throughout the summer, due to reduced summer staffing hours for School Counselors, responses and schedule adjustments may take additional time. Final student schedules will be available at Open House in August. Thank you for your understanding and support as we work to create the best possible schedules for all students.
