Carrollton, Ky. - June 9, 2020 - The Carroll County School District has created a COVID-19 Re-Entry Task Force, which has created a series of safety protocols that will be implemented before students return to school this fall.

I want to emphasize that this is just a snapshot of the precautions we are taking to maximize the safety of students and staff during this pandemic. As circumstances change, our Task Force will meet and adjust our protocols and procedures accordingly.” 

The following safety protocols will be in place for students and staff when school begins in the fall:
