Clarification
A story about the Unionville-Chadds Ford School District’s recent school board meeting in the April 1 edition of the Chester County Press should have clarified that the school district has recommended adjusting the Secondary Campus Plan timeline to construct a new middle school. The recommendation is for construction to take place starting in 2031instead of 2027. As a result of that adjustment to the timeline, the Secondary Campus Plan is estimated to cost $166.4 million at that point, and the school district’s existing debt will have dropped significantly. This will allow the school district to borrow for the project and pay for debt service from the General Fund Budget while keeping tax increases for residents within the Act 1 Index.
