LETTER
FROM THE
 PRINCIPAL
|
Good Afternoon,
It was great to see so many of you at Parent-Teacher Conferences last week. The online sign up system was very well-received and is likely here to stay. The partnership between school and family is critical to your child's success and is something we take very seriously. Please know that the lines of communication are always open to you and we encourage you contact us should ever the need arise.
Our campus is buzzing this week as we welcome young people from all over the Dayton area for 8th Grade Visitation Days. Although these days are disruptive to our routine, they are critically important to the sustainability of our school community. So many students are involved in making these days successful and all are excited to show off their school. The "Carroll Spirit" is contagious among them, and they are great examples of what we want our Patriots to become!
It's a great day to be a Patriot!

Friday evening will be the ever-popular Irish Fish Fry (adults only), followed by family fun on Saturday highlighting Irish Dancers, talented bands, delicious food, Celtic games, and more. Our goal is to successfully bring together various groups at Carroll as well as create an entertaining event to the Greater Dayton area, in celebration of St. Patrick's Day!
Sponsored by the Alumni Association, the Patriot Booster Club, and the
Carrolleer Band Association. Money raised will positively impact the entire Carroll community--benefiting academics, the arts, athletics, and alumni.
