Union County–College Corner Joint School District

What Union County–College Corner Joint School District does

Union County–College Corner Joint School District (UCCCJSD) is a public K-12 school corporation jointly serving students in Union County, Indiana and College Corner, Ohio. It operates four schools—College Corner Union Elementary, Liberty Elementary, Union County Middle School, and Union County High School—plus Lil' Patriots Preschool for 4-year-olds, serving students from preschool through grade 12. The district is governed by an elected school board and funded through state aid, local property taxes, and federal grants, with revenue figures not publicly disclosed.

The district's core technology infrastructure centers on a 1:1 Chromebook program (implemented in 2020) for all K-12 students, deployed alongside Google Workspace for Education. Administrative and instructional operations run on PowerSchool (student information system), Canvas LMS (high school), Google Classroom (elementary and middle school), Clever single sign-on, IXL for personalized practice, and SchoolMessenger for parent alerts. Supporting platforms include NutriSlice for cafeteria menus, MySchoolBucks and SchoolPay for fee collection, FinalForms for athletic registration, and NWEA MAP for student assessment. The district also operates an Indiana Department of Education–approved eLearning Day program that uses Canvas and Google Classroom for weather-related closures.

UCCCJSD generates revenue primarily through public funding mechanisms rather than commercial sales. Ancillary revenue streams include preschool tuition ($20/day, billed monthly) and athletic game sponsorships ($50 per game). The district's GTM is effectively non-commercial: it serves students residing within district boundaries, with additional capacity available through Ohio Open Enrollment and out-of-district transfers. Leadership is led by Superintendent Steve Jones (appointed 2025, 29th year in education) and a management team including a Director of IT, District Treasurer, building principals, an Athletic Director, a Transportation Director, and a Food Service Director.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• Hoosier Academies (Mosaica Online): Indiana-licensed virtual K-12 provider; competes with UCCCJSD's eLearning capabilities for open-enrollment students and represents an alternative model for families seeking non-traditional instruction in Indiana.
• Indiana Connections Academy: Statewide online public K-12 school option authorized in Indiana; competes for open-enrollment and transfer students who might otherwise attend a small brick-and-mortar district like UCCCJSD.

Direct peers

• Blackford County Schools: Single-county Indiana public school district of comparable size and rural footprint, offering similar K-12 programming including athletics and CTE pathways through regional career centers.
• Jay School Corporation: Indiana public school corporation operating multiple schools in a rural county setting with similar funding profile (state aid, property tax), making it directly comparable in operating model and scale.
• South Adams Schools: Small rural Indiana public school district of similar scale and demographic profile; offers a comparable K-12 structure with elementary, middle, and high schools serving a single county footprint.

Regional players

• Richmond Community Schools: East-central Indiana public school district where Superintendent Steve Jones previously served; relevant as a talent pipeline and regional comparison for governance and program structure.
• Fayette County School Corporation: Neighboring Indiana public school district in east-central Indiana; serves a similar demographic through shared regional partners (e.g., Whitewater Career Center) and is geographically proximate to Union County.

Broad incumbents

• Stride (formerly K12 Inc.): Largest US online K-12 learning provider; offers a broad portfolio of virtual schooling that competes with UCCCJSD's eLearning Day and out-of-district transfer offerings at scale.
• National Heritage Academies: Charter management organization operating K-8 schools across multiple states; adjacent competitor for families seeking alternative public-school models with similar 1:1 technology and structured programs.

Others

• PowerSchool: Provider of UCCCJSD's core student information system, registration portal, and mobile app; an enabling technology partner rather than a competitor, but a key operational dependency for the district.
