Gladstone school bond
A school bond was passed for the Gladstone School District during the November 2006 general election. The estimated cost of the construction was $40,000,000.[2] The money was used to help all schools in the district, however, the majority of the money funded both the renovation/expansion of Gladstone High School and the establishment of the new Gladstone Center for Children & Families.[2]
Statewide recognition
At the beginning of the 2024-25 school year, the Gladstone School District received statewide recognition for its success in increasing enrollment through a citywide Gladstone Shows Up campaign.[3]
