Hello Panther family! Rumors have been circulating on social media and among the CCHS student body that a threat has been made toward the high school for Monday. The high school administration and School Resource Officer team began addressing this rumor on Friday. There is no credible threat to CCHS at this time.

Today is School Communicators Day! At Carroll County Schools, we’re fortunate to have an incredible communications team that goes above and beyond every day. Under the leadership of Jennifer Willhoite, Director of Public Relations, this team works tirelessly to highlight the amazing work happening across our district and to keep our community informed and connected. Please excuse this graphic made by the Director of Technology. He's definitely not a graphic design expert, unlike Jennifer and our communications team.

Fourth grade science students at Cartmell Elementary discussed how maps can help them see Earth's patterns, specifically how maps can be used to track where volcanoes erupt. Students plotted volcano coordinates on maps and used that information to discuss their theories.
