Community Unit School District #4 (CUSD #4), branded as Unity Schools, is a public K-12 school district headquartered in Mendon, Illinois, serving students across Adams and Hancock Counties. The district operates three schools on two campuses: Unity Elementary School (Pre-K through 4th grade) at 136 W Washington St, and the combined Middle School/High School campus (grades 5-8 and 9-12 respectively) at 453 W Collins St. It is governed by a seven-member elected Board of Education and led by Superintendent Scott Riddle, with Gina Whelan as Business Manager managing district finances and Lisa Maas as Administrative Assistant.

The district delivers a standard public K-12 curriculum including core academics, special education, Title I support, agriculture and shop/mechanics career-technical pathways, athletics, music, and counseling services. Its underlying technology infrastructure is composed of third-party administrative platforms rather than proprietary systems: PowerSchool serves as the student information system for grades, attendance, and registration; SchoolMessenger Presence powers the district website; E-Funds for Schools handles online meal and fee payments; Google Docs supports document management; and a Weebly-hosted site covers high school counseling. The district does not disclose APIs, mobile applications, or proprietary technology assets.

As a public entity, CUSD #4 is funded through three government revenue streams: local property taxes collected from Adams and Hancock County residents, state of Illinois per-pupil formula funding and categorical grants, and federal education grants including Title I and IDEA special education allocations. Education is provided free to district residents, with fee-based ancillary services such as transportation, meals, and activity fees; a free and reduced lunch program covers qualifying families. Community fundraising and foundation support (Friends of Unit 4, U4 Foundation, Sports Boosters) supplement appropriations. The organization is government-owned with no parent company, no subsidiaries in the corporate sense, and no M&A history; the three schools function as operating units under the district.
