The Kentucky Shakespeare program presented “Living History: We The People” to Carroll County Middle School students this week. The performance moved through a 250-year period of American history, highlighting events such as the Boston Tea Party, the Continental Congress, the Revolutionary War, the Constitution of the United States, the Industrial Revolution, World War II, the McCarthy Red Scare and the civil rights movement led by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Cartmell Elementary students took the Safe Schools Pledge this week in observance of Safe Schools Week. They also heard a presentation on being safe from SRO Laman "Pop" Stark and talked about safety as part of their social emotional learning time.

Carroll County Schools kicked off Safe Schools Week with the Carroll County Ambulance Service making a visit to the Carroll County Child Development Center. Children learned about oxygen, blood pressure, got a tour of the ambulance and a few were lucky enough to get balloons made from gloves.
Kentucky Safe Schools Week is designed to raise awareness about aspects of school safety and empower students, teachers, parents and the community to take a proactive approach to creating a safe learning environment. The theme this year is “Level Up”. More information is available at https://kycss.org/safe-schools-week/.

Good afternoon. We have received some information today that Cartmell students and parents would like to bring flowers to the school for last week's tragic event. We ask that these flowers be left at the designated bench outside Cartmell and not brought into the school or the classroom. Our students are certainly grieving and we are concerned that an in school memorial could have unintended emotional impact on students
Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you during this difficult time
Casey Jaynes
