Keep up the great work, Panthers! 🖤💛




These accomplishments represent the hard work and preparation our students have put into their futures, whether they plan to continue their education, enter the workforce, or both.
Way to go, Class of 2027! We are proud of you!

Hello everyone!
We are excited to share an opportunity for our community to help shape the future look of Carroll County Schools!
Below is a Google Form link featuring four potential choices for our new official district color. As we consider this change, we recognize the history, tradition and pride associated with the black and gold that have long represented our schools and community. We value that history and, just as importantly, value your input.
Please take a moment to review the choices and cast your vote using the link below. The survey will be open until Friday, Nov. 13 at 5 p.m.
Your opinion matters, and we appreciate you taking the time to be part of this process!

Halloween was a busy time at Carroll County Schools!
Trick or treat events were held throughout schools, costumes of all types and sizes could be spotted from elementary to high school and, of course, we were so excited to see the huge turnout at the district-sponsored Trunk or Treat! It was also fun to see the Carroll County Area Technology Center students turn their school into a giant Halloween house for their neighbors at Cartmell Elementary.
The Kindergarten and Winn enrichment teams tied for first place - the Monsters Inc and Inside Out teams. They will split a $150 prize, which can be used for their classrooms. The People’s Choice award went to Kelly Tuttle’s depiction of Andy’s Room from Toy Story.
(More Trunk or Treat photos on the District Facebook page.)

Each month, attendance numbers will be reviewed to determine which school has earned the Traveling Panther trophy. The winning school will receive a special visit from our Panther mascot as we celebrate students and staff for their efforts in making school attendance a priority.
The Traveling Panther trophy will be displayed in the winning school's front office and will travel to a new school each month based on attendance results.
We'll coordinate with each winning school to schedule a presentation and celebration with students and staff. We'll also take photos to share the good news with our Panther family.
We hope this monthly tradition will be a fun way to recognize the importance of showing up, encourage good attendance habits and celebrate our schools.
Our Panther logo is currently showing off a little mystery. No color just yet, but what will it become?
We'll soon be asking our staff, students, families and community to vote on our new official district color. That color will help shape the look of our Panther logo and district branding moving forward.
Stay tuned for more details and an opportunity to cast your vote!

Join them tonight at Panther Field as we celebrate seniors from football, dance, cheer and band. The ceremony begins at 6:45 p.m.
A BIG thank you to Champions for a Drug-Free Carroll County, especially Glenna and Robin, for lending a helping hand with setting up our REN Rewards!
Your time, support, and willingness to jump in and help mean so much to us. We are incredibly grateful for community partners like you! 🖤💛
