The nursing staff at CCMS and CCHS arranged to have staff from the Three Rivers Health Department come to the schools to administer vaccinations recently. This is one of the many services offered by our health services department to help increase compliance with required health documentation. Thanks to the ongoing efforts of the nursing staff at Carroll County Schools and the help of our health department, our immunization compliances increased to 96.4% at CCMS and 72.6% at CCHS.

Carroll County Board of Education member Rob Spenneberg was recognized during his final board meeting for his contributions and dedication to Carroll County Schools during his tenure on the board.
Spenneberg began his service on the board of education in September 2012 when he was appointed to serve out the remainder of a prior member’s term. He was elected to the board and continued to serve through December 2024.
He has championed Carroll County Schools throughout his time on the board. He has worked with three superintendents and one interim superintendent. He was vice chairperson for three years and served as board chairperson for two years.
The accomplishments during his tenure are many. Too many to list, actually.
Some of the highlights include renovations or additions at the middle school, Head Start, Kathryn Winn and the high school. He was instrumental in technological improvements throughout the district, installation of a turf football/soccer field at the high school, JCTC Dual Credit agreements in 2013 which lead to the partnerships we have now, mental health initiatives for staff and students, training opportunities for staff members and supported the development of consistent curriculum throughout the district.
“Mr. Spenneberg’s contributions to Carroll County Schools are impactful and will be felt for many years in our student body and our staff members, said Carroll County Schools Superintendent Casey Jaynes. “Thank you Rob for your dedication and efforts to improve Carroll County Schools.”
