01 Project Overview
After six failed bond issues, Warren Local Schools decided to try something new. They partnered with Fanning Howey for Pre-Bond services for the first time in January 2017. And just five month later, the district was celebrating a community-supported project.

Warren Local Schools already had robust community engagement and a good master plan. But they needed support for their bond issue campaign. Fanning Howey provided voter analysis, graphic design and bond committee facilitation to help keep volunteers on track. On May 2, 2017, the new approach paid off with a successful bond issue that will result in a new high school, a new elementary school and additions and renovations to the middle school.
