The federal government funding that provided free breakfast and lunch to all students during the COVID-19 pandemic expired on the last day of the 2021-22 school year. This means that school meals will no longer automatically be free for every student. Carthage ISD students will need to complete an application form with their registration paperwork to determine whether they will qualify for free or reduced meals for this school year.

This community makes the safety and security of our students and staff the top priority. We are so thankful to have this great group of district staff, law enforcement partners, first responders, and community leaders working together to keep our Bulldogs safe!

ATTN Carthage ISD parents: If your child will ride the bus to/from school for the upcoming school year, please complete this form prior to July 29 so that we may begin planning our bus routes. https://carthageisd.jotform.com/221854114602043
