Water Bill Roundup
supports our schools

Join other City of Carrollton water customers who are supporting Carrollton City Schools by rounding up their monthly water bill to the next dollar with the difference donated to the Carrollton City Schools Education Foundation.

At Tuesday's Board of Education meeting, Supt. Dr. Mark Albertus encouraged board members and others in attendance to support the program. 

"We've experienced success with this program in the past and we appreciate the city partnering with us in this effort," said Dr. Albertus.

Here is a link to the city's press release about the program to familiarize the rest of you about how this generous community effort benefits our schools. Note that this program is for City of Carrollton water customers only; other county water service areas are not participating.

It is very easy to sign up through this link. Thank you in advance for supporting Carrollton City Schools!

The first and last faces bus riders see each day are the faces of Carrollton City Schools bus drivers. At its Aug. 9 meeting, the Carrollton Board of Education recognized the Transportation Department employees for their exceptional service and dedication to safely delivering children to school and to their homes every day. This group, who represents about two thirds of the entire team, collectively has more than 200 years of experience driving school buses. Watch this video of their #trojansallin contribution!
