Office News If your child will NOT BE RETURNING to Carroll ISD next school year, please complete a Summer Withdrawal form and return to leslie.evans@southlakecarroll.edu as soon as possible. The withdrawal form can be found by clicking on the following link:  2021 Summer Withdrawal Withdrawing students must return laptops to the front office on their last day of school.  Parents - please continue to pull all the way forward in the drop off / pick up lane. This helps us load more kiddos and gets teachers back inside the building quicker! Any extra candy from your Easter holiday activities please consider donating to Officer Roberson. This candy gets used in class presentations as well as occasionally passed out in hallways between classes.   Thank you in advance, Officer Roberson
