Greetings Carroll Fam,

High school football in Texas is not just a sport; it’s part of our cultural fabric, and here at Carroll it brings together our community and allows us to showcase our Tiger Pride! This week, countless hours of preparation will be on display as we kick off the season at Cabaniss on Friday at 7 pm vs. Alice. Our band, cheerleaders, Tigerettes, flag corps, trainers, managers, NJROTC, clubs, and organizations, along with coaches, teachers, sponsors, and staff will start the season with excitement and anticipation! It’s such a special time of year for high schools across Texas and I know our Tiger Pride will be on full display.

We invite you to show up and get loud as you cheer our boys on the field and enjoy all of the performances and festivities that "Friday Night Lights" brings! This Friday, 7 PM at Cabaniss IS THE PLACE TO BE!

Wishing you a great week ahead Tiger Fam! #TPND #WeAreCarroll

Your Proud Principal,

Mr. Arredondo

We are excited to invite you to our Open House and PTSA Meeting on Wednesday, September 18th, from 5:30 to 7:00 PM. This event will be a fantastic opportunity for you to connect with your student’s teachers, gain insight into their daily routines, and explore the exciting programs and activities planned for this school year. During the PTSA meeting, you’ll also have the chance to learn how you can contribute to our school community and make a positive impact on our students' experiences. Whether you're a returning member or new to our school, your involvement is invaluable. If you have any questions or need more information, please contact our Assistant Principal, Debbie Fennema. We can't wait to welcome you and work together to support our students! See you there!

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to Dairy Queen on Saratoga for surprising our staff with a delicious ice cream cake! Your generosity brought smiles to our faces and made our day a little sweeter. It’s gestures like these that remind us how fortunate we are to have such wonderful community partners. Your support means the world to us, and we’re incredibly grateful for your kindness. Thank you for making our week extra special!

Show your school pride and support our programs by purchasing school-branded clothing and items from our school store! By buying spirit gear, you not only display your school spirit but also contribute to funding various school activities and initiatives.

Parents, staying informed about your child’s academic progress and attendance is key to their success. Regularly checking their grades and attendance can help you catch any issues early and support their growth throughout the school year. We encourage you to frequently review this information to ensure your student stays on track. You can find all the details on how to access your child’s grades and attendance through the Home Access Center here. Your involvement makes a significant difference in your child’s education!

Get involved in your student’s education by joining the PTSA for only 6 dollars - for a limited time! Our Parent-Teacher-Student Association supports programs, events, and initiatives that benefit all students. Your participation helps create a stronger, more vibrant school environment!

We're excited to announce that we'll be hosting Friday Night Lights from 4:15 PM to 7:15 PM and Saturday School from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM starting soon! Be on the lookout for start dates! These sessions are perfect opportunities for students needing to complete attendance recovery and/or HB1416 hours. Whether your student needs to catch up or stay on track, these dedicated times will help them meet their requirements in a supportive environment. Encourage your student to take advantage of these sessions to ensure they meet their academic goals!

We’re proud to partner with Communities in Schools (CIS) of the Coastal Bend to provide additional support for our students. CIS is dedicated to helping students overcome obstacles to succeed in school and life. By connecting students with resources such as academic support, counseling, mentoring, and basic needs assistance, CIS ensures that every student has the opportunity to thrive.

Together, we can help every student reach their full potential!
