‼️ REMINDER ‼️Carthage ISD students will be out of school tomorrow, Feb. 13, for a staff development day and Monday, Feb. 16 for the Presidents Day holiday. We hope everyone enjoys the long weekend and comes back refreshed and ready to learn on Tuesday! 🐾

Happy #NationalSchoolCounselingWeek to our six amazing counselors. These ladies show up every day with steady guidance, listening ears and a whole lot of heart, and our students (and staff) are better because of them! 👏♥️

This Friday, Feb. 6, is Go Red Day, so wear red to raise awareness for heart health and help fight heart disease. ❤️🟥 And this should be easy… we wear red all the time to support our Bulldogs! ♥️🐾

Carthage ISD campuses will be closed Monday, Jan. 26, due to winter weather and icy roadways. Stay safe and warm, Bulldogs. ❄️🥶🐾

We are closely monitoring the weather forecast this week and early next week to ensure the safety and well-being of our students and staff. ❄️ We want to assure you that any decisions about delays or cancellations are never made lightly. We understand the significant impact these changes can have on families, work schedules, and daily routines.

Now is a great time to make sure you’re logged in to your Rooms account on the Carthage ISD app, and that you’re following the district’s social media channels. We will always communicate decisions as early as possible, and if any adjustments are necessary, we will promptly notify families through the following channels:

📱 Text Alerts to Families / Rooms Announcement
🔔 Carthage ISD App Notification
🌐 carthageisd.org
📢 Carthage ISD Social Media Channels

Classes will proceed as normally scheduled if you do not see a notice from us on any of these platforms. Thank you for your understanding and continued support! 😊

We are currently experiencing a phone outage at Carthage High School and the Carthage ISD Administration Office. If you need to reach someone at either of these places, please use these temporary alternate numbers:

🎷🎵 GOOD LUCK to the Carthage High School Battlin’ Bulldog Band as they perform today at the UIL State Marching Contest in Waco! 🎺🎼

This group has demonstrated focus, resilience, and true #BulldogPride throughout the season. We’re proud of their hard work, teamwork, and dedication to excellence. ❤️🤍🥁🎶

🚌 It’s National School Bus Safety Week! 💛 During #NationalSchoolBusSafetyWeek, take a moment to thank your child’s bus driver for keeping our Bulldogs safe every single day. 🐾

YOU can help keep our students safe by following these laws when you're on the road and see a school bus:

🛑 On two-lane and multi-lane roads (even those divided only by a center left-turn lane): Drivers in both directions must stop for a bus loading or unloading students.
🛑 On a divided highway with a physical median, unpaved space, or barrier: Only vehicles traveling in the same direction as the bus are required to stop. Vehicles on the opposite side should proceed with caution.
🛑 School buses are required by law to stop at all railroad crossings.

Failure to stop can result in HEFTY fines , but more importantly, it puts children’s lives at risk. 🚸

REMINDER that there's no school on Monday! Have a great long weekend, #BulldogFamily !!! 🐾🐾🐾
