Your donations - We contributed to the cost of the “I Am Malala” readingprogram, as part of the One Book, One School reading initiative.By April 22nd, you and your family should be through chapter 33 of thebook and finished by the end of the first week of May.

We purchased 15 e-readers as a trial program for 6th grade students. We purchased 20 “docking stations” for teachers, which enables them to easily transition laptop accessories or AV equipment with multiple inputs and plugs, saving valuable time (and frustration!) in the classroom.

There is an election this year for Boar of Education positions. Only ¼ of Carroll County households have children of school age, soyour voice matters!!
