LETTER
FROM THE
 PRINCIPAL

Good Morning Parents,
As I mentioned last year, the faculty and staff at Carroll has a number of fresh faces as we welcome twelve new members for the 2015-2016 school year. Admittedly, I was initially nervous about replacing some for the legendary educators that moved on at the end of last year, but I am happy to report that the new members of our team have inserted themselves seamlessly into our community and have added so much to our already strong faculty. Please join me in welcoming the following new members of the Carroll family:
Mrs. Rachel (Neimer) Barnell '06 - English
Ms. Kiersten Fenske - Family and Consumer Science
Mr. Michael Franz '05 - Director of Communications
Ms. Katie Luckenbill - Latin / English Language Learners
Mr. Chris Ochs - Study Hall / Football
Dr. Christina O'Malley - Chemistry and Physics
Mrs. Tara Paretti - Mathematics
Mrs. Bridget Pierson - English
Mr. Erik Ramsey '93 - Social Studies / Basketball
Mr. Conor Squire - Social Studies / Football
Mr. Todd Tayloe - Life Science
Ms. Laura Walsh - Intervention Specialist
It's a Great Day to Be a Patriot!
