Carroll County Middle School

Congratulations to CCMS staff members Kelly Simmons and Mandy Young on presenting at the Kentucky Continuous Improvement Summit today in Lexington. Their presentation, “Intentional Strategy Mapping in Math,” was chosen as one of the top “Best Evidence Practices” at this week’s annual summit. Here, they are pictured with Dr. Robbie Fletcher, Kentucky Commissioner of Education. CCMS teachers give their best to our community every day—we’re a school on the move!

A guardian recently shared this positive feedback about their 7th-grade experience so far at CCMS: “Ms. Smith has reached out to us by phone and also through email with specific comments about our grandson, both positive and with areas for improvement. In fact, we have had four 7th grade teachers reach out this year with specific comments.”
Thank you for sharing!

Our Eighth Grade hallway is lined with a variety of projects and assignments that our students have completed this school year.

The CCHS Lady Panthers Volleyball team 🏐 cheered on the middle school volleyball team at its contest last week. We love seeing our student athletes 💪 support one another and be great examples of what it means to be a teammate 🤝! Great job Panthers! 🖤💛🐾 (📸 Stephanie Rose)

📢Panther families, a friendly reminder to ensure your student has their identification badge 🪪with them each day. Students use the badges to get on and off the school bus🚌, at lunch 🍽️and to check out books 📚in the library. Students can also get free 🆓admission to high school athletic events by showing their badge! We appreciate your support in this venture!🙌🏻

Fifth grade math students are hard at work this morning.

Another Sunday shoutout from one of our parents/guardians. Ryan Laswell is our P.E./Health teacher. Here is what a parent shared with us recently:
"He is truly a kind and caring teacher who my son looks up to, and our entire family is thankful for his dedication."

Here is another comment that we recently received from a parent:
Ms. Michelle Montgomery's welcoming and warm love is evident to all kids. I am so thankful for her friendship and love for my boy!

We appreciate the positive feedback and encouragement that parents/guardians have shared with us lately. This shoutout goes to Carl Roberts, our 6th-grade ELA Focus teacher:
"Carl called to brag on my daughter. It was so nice of him to take the time after school to do that!"

Mrs. Underwood and Mrs. Fox team together and co-teach language arts classes. In this picture, students practice their reading and writing response skills.
