Carrollton, Ky. - January 19, 2021 - Every January, communities across Kentucky recognize school board members for their service during School Board Recognition Month. For the Carroll County Board of Education, though, this January is more special than usual. The success of the Double C Farm at Camp KYSOC led to the district winning the Fall 2020 PEAK Award from the Kentucky School Boards Association. 

Carrollton, Ky. - December 18, 2020 - As a result of a rising COVID-19 infection rate in Carroll County as well as a recommendation from Gov. Beshear, Carroll County School District students will not return to in-person instruction on January 4, 2021. This applies to all schools and students in the Carroll County School District. District administrators will monitor the situation in the coming weeks before making a decision about when to return to in-person instruction.

Athletics programs will continue to follow KHSAA guidelines, which allow for winter sports practices through December. Athletic competitions may resume January 4.

Carrollton, Ky. - November 24, 2020 - Starting Monday, Nov. 30, school district vehicles will deliver food to the homes of all Carroll County School District students who reside in Carroll County. Deliveries will be made once per week between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays or Wednesdays. Each delivery will consist of five school breakfasts and five school lunches per child. For the safety of our employees and of families, deliveries will be left at the front door of each residence. 

“We are pleased to offer this service to our students,” said Chief Financial Officer Jon Conrad. “This has been a challenging year for many of our students and their families. We are committed to doing our part to help everyone get through the COVID-19 crisis together.”

Families can opt out of food deliveries if they wish to do so. To opt out, please call 502-662-0569 or email Lisa.Gault@carroll.kyschools.us. Families who wish to receive food deliveries do not need to take any action.
 

Carrollton, Ky. - October 30, 2020 - Students at Carroll County High School will soon have access to a new hydroponic greenhouse, made possible through partnership and grant support from Dow. Food grown in the greenhouse will be used in school lunches and will also help supply the Food Pantry of Carroll County. Construction of the new greenhouse will begin soon and should be complete by December of this year.

“We can’t thank Dow enough for what they are doing for our students and our community,” said Superintendent Danny Osborne. “Our agriculture program has grown by leaps and bounds in recent years, and for Dow to honor that growth in this way is just incredible. We are beyond blessed in this community, thanks to partners like Dow.”
