Would you like to learn more about the district facilities plan and how anticipated school/grade structure changes can be made? Join us at the Town Halls on Jan. 27 and 28 before the basketball games. We will meet in the Maker Space (ag workshop) at Carroll County High School.
Thank you to everyone for your patience this morning while students arrived to school! We are so excited to see their smiling faces!
🚨🚨Say it in your best Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson voice! School is coming back to Carroll County! 🚨🚨
Please be patient with buses tomorrow as it is likely they may be running a little behind.
WE CAN'T WAIT TO SEE OUR CARTMELL STUDENTS BACK AT SCHOOL TOMORROW!
Please be sure your child returns their BLACK NTI FOLDER to school tomorrow! Teachers will be checking for completion of Days 1, 2, and 3, and will be providing packets for future NTI days in the event of more winter weather. If your child was unable to complete the assigned NTI work, please send it back to school with them and we will provide necessary support. Please reach out to your child's teacher with any questions.

Cartmell's next All Pro Dad Breakfast will be on Wednesday, Jan 15th at 7:15 AM.
Conditions appeared good enough to go to school tomorrow, but bus turnarounds, sidewalks and other areas are still unsafe for travel. As a result, we will use another NTI Day on Monday, Jan. 13. Each school will follow its NTI protocol. Stay safe and warm!
The Carroll County Schools maintenance staff has worked hard all weekend to get sidewalks and parking lots ready for students and staff to come back to school tomorrow. We look forward to seeing everyone in school tomorrow! Get good rest tonight!
COMING JANUARY 21-24th to the CARTMELL LIBRARY!
This year's Book Fair is going to be epic! More Books. More Choices. More Fun. Start exploring together on our school's Book Fair homepage:

January is School Board Appreciation Month. Carroll County Schools is blessed with a dedicated set of board members who work diligently to provide the best for our students and staff. Thank you to Gwen Chapman, D'Anne Smith, Carolyn Jones, Corey Groseclose and Jeffery Bates.
Here's a great opportunity to work at two of our wonderful schools!
Cartmell Staff members will be attempting to contact EVERY student's home today and tomorrow during our NTI Days 1 & 2!
The call may come from a number you don't recognize, as several staff members are collaborating to contact families. We are just calling to say "hello", check in on NTI work progress, and offer any guidance we can. If you cannot locate your child's BLACK NTI FOLDER, please don't stress. They will be provided with a copy of the work, and the opportunity to complete it, when we return to school.
Stay safe and warm---we will talk to you soon!
Good afternoon!
Due to the weather and school closure, the January Cartmell Elementary SBDM meeting will be rescheduled for next Thursday 1/16 at 3:30 PM in the library.
Carroll County Schools will utilize NTI Days on Thursday, Jan. 9 and Friday, Jan. 10. Schools will contact students regarding their assignments.
❄️📖Snow Day stories are the best stories!
