Winter 2024-25 Unite U-46 Sessions
Preliminary Attendance Boundary Recommendations
Our Unite U-46 plan is moving forward, and we gathered input on preliminary attendance boundary recommendations at five community open house sessions held in December 2024 and January 2025.
During those sessions, members of the community were invited to drop in to learn about the boundary recommendations, ask questions, and share feedback.
School District U-46 is organized into five networks, each composed of the elementary and middle schools that feed into one of our five high schools. Each session focused on a specific network, highlighting the schools within that group and their preliminary attendance boundary recommendations. Spanish interpreters were available at each session.

Unite U-46: Mapping our Future
Keeping our Board of Education and community updated on the Unite U-46 process is a priority for this to be a success.
On April 4, 2023, the community approved the district’s bond proposal allowing us to invest in our facilities. The approval of the bond proposal allows us to now take the necessary steps to improve our schools and make them an even better place for all students to learn and all teachers to teach.
This bond proposal was a recommendation by the Unite U-46 planning process. Click here to learn more about the initial Unite U-46 work.
The second phase of the Unite U-46 process kept the U-46 community informed and engaged as the plan, and projects were confirmed, ensuring the original goals and intent of recommendations were respected and honored during implementation. Click here to learn more about the second phase of the United U-46 process.
In September 2024, we kicked off the third phase of the Unite U-46 process to seek feedback and guidance on new districtwide attendance boundaries, which are planned to be finalized by the Spring of 2025. The phase 3 sessions will also include regular updates on the plan's implementation and construction progress.
