Carroll County Schools wrapped up its districtwide food drive today, and we are blown away by the generosity of our Panther families! You donated more than 4,000 items! 🐾❤️ Every item donated will directly support families right here in our community. 🥫🤝
Missed your chance to give? The Carroll County Food Pantry is still accepting donations and will host a Stuff the Cruiser event on Nov. 22! 🚓🛒 There’s still time to make a difference for neighbors in need. 💛🙏

Today, students took the reading and listening portions. One student has already passed the reading test (way to go, Lydia! 🎉). Yesterday Mrs. McCarty’s Spanish 3 and 4 students practiced listening and speaking, with conversations about daily life, such as food, hobbies, routines, and more. Students created their own questions after listening to Spanish recordings, helping deepen their understanding and build confidence.
Next, they shift to the writing section, where students will use everyday vocabulary to share their thoughts and opinions. ✨
We have 27 students participating in this cycle. Five are current Spanish 3 and 4 students, while the remainder are native Spanish speakers. Another testing session will be available in the spring.
Students who achieve the Seal of Biliteracy receive:
🎓 A seal on their diploma
📝 A note on their transcript
🎀 Golden and red cords at graduation
🚀A boost in future job and academic opportunities.
We’re proud of our students for challenging themselves and building skills that will benefit them for life! 🌎🙌
The safety of our students and staff is our top priority. We believe in being transparent and making sure every family knows what to expect in case of an emergency. Please take a moment to review this letter outlining our reunification procedures , which are the steps we’d follow to safely reunite students and families after an emergency.

This project will allow extra room for mowers, golf carts and people to utilize that section of ground 🚜🛺🚶♀️. It could also become part of the cross country course that has been created on the opposite end of the pond 🏃♂️🌳.
The platform is going to be a cantilever style with a handrail and ramps on each end 🧰📏.
The goal for all PBL/WBL students is to attain 300 hours of successful employment and be considered career ready at graduation 🎓💼. Those students who are career ready receive a notation on their diploma and a cord to wear at graduation 🎖️🎉.

A group of CCHS students and staff recently spent the day training to become Sources of Strength peer leaders. Students were chosen for their ability to uplift, support, and inspire their classmates. 🐾⭐
Through interactive games and activities, student and adult leaders explored the core components of Sources of Strength, discussed common stressors, and learned how to help peers tap into their own strengths to overcome challenges. 🧠💙
We’re proud of these incredible Panthers for stepping up to make CCHS a stronger, more supportive community! 🙌🖤💛
