Four grades within Carroll County Middle and High School are participating in the Kentucky Incentives for Prevention (KIP) Youth Survey on November 4. Parent permission is required for students in grades 6, 8, 10 and 12 to participate in the survey. Regular emails and text messages have been sent to parents in those grades asking for the permission slip to be completed. Participation is voluntary, but the results do help counselors and mental health providers know what types of support our students need to be successful.

Please take a moment to review this flyer for helpful guidance on when itās best to keep your child (or yourself) home and when it is safe to return to school. Allowing time to rest and recover helps your child heal and protects classmates and staff as well.

Kentucky is experiencing a measles outbreak with 170 confirmed cases as of October 16, 2026. Measles, a highly contagious illness, can be prevented by receiving the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccination.
The Kentucky Department for Public Health has confirmed cases in Carroll County, but there are none in Carroll County Schools. Measles symptoms include a high fever, cough, runny nose, red or watery eyes and a rash. Please be mindful of these symptoms before sending children to school. Kentucky measles information is available at this link: Kentucky Measles Dashboard
Some general information to consider:
ā£ Kentucky currently has 170 confirmed cases of measles in Kentucky.
ā£Measles is highly contagious. Exposure can occur simply by being in the same area, such as a gym, as someone with measles.
ā£Two MMR doses are recommended for full vaccination.
ā£If someone is exposed and is not fully vaccinated, they may need to remain home and be monitored for 21 days. We can offer home hospital services during this time if appropriate.
ā£A healthcare provider can order a test to check immunity.
ā£After exposure, a child may be able to receive an additional MMR dose if at least 30 days have passed since the previous dose.
Carroll County Schools is celebrating progress on the Kentucky Summative Assessment test across all schools.
Weāre proud to showcase our student accomplishments, including:
Cartmell Elementary moved out of TSI (Targeted Support and Improvement) status. It has been a TSI school for the past two years and has required intensive state and federal support.
Carroll County Middle School received a blue rating, the highest rating, for progress in English language proficiency.
Carroll County High School received a blue rating, the highest rating, for postsecondary readiness. They scored 14% higher than the state.
Carroll County High School increased from an orange to a yellow rating for their overall score, moving from low performance to medium performance.
Reading scores at all three school testing levels - elementary, middle and high - showed an increase in the number of students who are performing at proficient and distinguished levels.
āWe will continue to celebrate growth and focus on what our students need to be successful,ā said Carroll County Schools Superintendent Dr. Robin Stephenson. However, the vision for Carroll County Schools goes beyond test scores.
āI want the schools in our community to be the most inviting places in town; places where students enjoy coming each day, families feel welcome, and community members are proud to visit,ā Stephenson said, emphasizing that everyone should know they are welcome in Carroll County Schoolsā buildings. āThat kind of environment doesn't happen by accident. It comes from the way we treat one another, the relationships we build, the opportunities we provide, and the care we show our students, staff, and families every day.ā
Staff and administrators continue to work together to make improvements that will benefit our students. More information on KSA results can be found at this link: https://reportcard.kyschools.us/

Principal David Craig and School Resource Officer David Trimble immediately investigated the report and located an empty airsoft BB gun in the studentās vehicle. The item was confiscated, and school officials are addressing the matter.
Carroll County Schools Superintendent Dr. Robin Stephenson praised the student who reported the concern, emphasizing the importance of speaking up when something does not seem right.
āIt takes courage to report something like this,ā Stephenson said. āWe encourage students to tell a trusted school employee or law enforcement officer if they see something that concerns them.ā
Stephenson also encouraged parents to talk with their children about reporting safety concerns and to remain aware of what their students bring to school.
āTransparency is important to Carroll County Schools. The safety of our staff and students always remains a priority,ā Stephenson said.
Officer Gividen is communicating with his friends and colleagues while he remains hospitalized.
