🚨 Attention Carthage Community 🚨
Please be advised that tomorrow and Tuesday (July 7 & 8), the Panola County Sheriff's Office will be conducting training sessions at Carthage Junior High.
You may notice an increased presence of law enforcement vehicles in the vicinity of the campus. We want to assure everyone that this is simply training and there is no cause for alarm.

The safety and security of our community and schools is always our top priority, and we are very appreciative of our law enforcement partners who share this priority to keep our Bulldogs safe. #SafeCarthageISD šŸš”

Today we honor #Juneteenth, a powerful reminder of the end of slavery in the United States. Celebrated every June 19, the holiday originated in Texas, marking the day in 1865 when Union troops arrived and announced that enslaved people were finally free, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued in 1862. Let us reflect on this important chapter in our nation’s history. Happy #FreedomDay! šŸ”“šŸŸ”šŸŸ¢

Over the past five years, the Carthage ISD Board of Trustees has consistently approved a lower or unchanged tax rate each school year—even after voters approved bonds in November 2020 and May 2023. Since the 2020-21 school year, the total tax rate has decreased by $0.2972, with no increases. šŸ‘‡ #CarthageISDBond2025

Carthage ISD Historical Tax Rates
You may notice the phrase "THIS IS A PROPERTY TAX INCREASE" on the ballot for both bond propositions. We want to clearly explain what this means: 🐾 State law requires this specific wording on the ballot—even though approving these bonds will not raise Carthage ISD’s current I&S tax rate. 🐾 The district’s tax rate will remain the same, unless future economic conditions require an adjustment to repay bonds responsibly. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions that we can help answer. Early voting is happening now, so we encourage our school community to vote! #CarthageISDBond2025
