Throwback Thursday
Carroll County Schools Superintendent Dr. Robin Stephenson shows her support for our staff and students in so many ways, including jumping in to help whenever and wherever she’s needed!

This morning, when a teacher at CCHS became ill, Dr. Stephenson stepped in to substitute and keep the class going. She wasn’t looking for recognition, but thankfully, a staff member captured this photo!

We’re grateful to have a superintendent who stays involved, supports her team and is always willing to lend a hand. Thank you, Dr. Stephenson, for all the ways you show up for our Panther family!

Carroll County students did a wonderful job representing our district at today’s Carroll County Chamber of Commerce meeting!

The district welcomed business and community leaders to Carroll County Middle School, where students from across grade levels took part in the program. Two students from Kathryn Winn Primary greeted guests, two Cartmell Elementary students led the Pledge of Allegiance, and two Carroll County High School students shared highlights about our district. The CCMS band performed for the guests and the W.E.B. Leaders served as hosts and hostesses.

Each student was well-spoken, confident and poised throughout their presentation. We’re proud of these students and the way they represented Carroll County Schools!
(More photos on the District Facebook page.)

CCMS students in the gifted and talented program are collaborating to design a Halloween-themed, nine hole Putt-Putt golf course. Through this hands-on project, students are applying measurement, geometry, and problem-solving skills while developing creativity and teamwork. Once their course is complete, students will have the opportunity to play the holes they designed.
After completing their collaborative work, students can dive into passion projects driven by their individual interests, allowing them to explore their strengths, pursue their curiosity, and take ownership of their learning. (Photos courtesy of Mrs. Snow.)

Four students in the Carroll County Middle School English Language Learners program gave a presentation to the Carroll County Board of Education last night.
The ELL students made the same presentation to their class and other districtwide administrators recently as part of an initiative to improve their speaking and presentation skills as well as give them confidence in their abilities. Each student spoke about their culture and a favorite food connected to their lineage. They explained why it is culturally significant, why they like the food and how to prepare the dish.

Apparently, the secret to serious STEM thinking is sticking out your tongue! Sideways, straight out, curled up… whatever works!

These young thinkers were hard at work during iLEAD Academy’s STEM Night, where students led spectators in games they created in computer and engineering classes. The iLEAD high schoolers also challenged younger students to put their critical thinking skills to the test. (More photos on the District Facebook page.)
