These future members of the CCHS Dance Team have been preparing for a performance tonight at the home football game. The game starts at 7:30 p.m. Join us at Panther Field to support all of our student athletes!

Cartmell Elementary sorted its new students into their houses recently. Each new inductee was greeted by house leaders and led to their seating area. The houses did their chants and the spirit stick was passed from Mr. Courtney to Mrs. McCarthy. Four Houses, One Family! (More photos on the District Facebook page.)

PARENT REMINDER--Each Cartmell student should have a COMPLETE CHANGE OF CLOTHES in their backpack in case of accidents, spills, falls, etc. as well as, a parent provided pair of HEADPHONES (not earbuds) for daily use at school. If you have not provided these items, please do so as soon as possible. Thank you for supporting your child's success at school!

HERE'S A BIRD'S-EYE-VIEW OF OUR PICKUP PROCEDURES!
We use an app called iDismiss to check in car tag numbers in wave order, then line up students inside according to those waves. Be sure and communicate any transportation change to the office via email at cartbuspass@carroll.kyschools.us by 1:00pm each day. This helps ensure that students are in the right location for pickup or bus.



Cartmell Elementary students spent part of their first day of school reviewing expectations and learning about each piece of their school day.

PICKUP PROCEDURES FOR CARTMELL--Thank you in advance for your PATIENCE during pickup this afternoon! The first couple of days are always a little hectic, but we have an efficient process in place to get our students to their cars and headed home in a safe and timely manner. You can help by familiarizing yourself with the process and guidelines before you arrive today. *If you still need a pickup tag, PLEASE visit the office BEFORE 1:00 PM today, so that you can join the pickup line without issue.

The last of the new LED signs was installed yesterday. Carroll County Schools is excited to provide these additions to all of our buildings. They will be updated regularly with school events, districtwide information as well as photos and videos.

The Ready Fair, a special event for preschool and elementary school children, was a big success again this year. Tonight was the last of the open houses for our schools. We look forward to greeting our students on August 14! (More photos on the District Facebook page.)

Carroll County Schools has released its list of designated bus stops. According to Transportation Director Dianna Dunn, a few stops have been added this year after monitoring the routes during the last school year.
Dunn asked parents to be patient with bus drivers during the first couple of weeks, as it might take a little longer to get children home. It will take time for children to get used to their bus locations and how the process works.
