Email Concerns

Carroll ISD continues to have trouble with inbound and outbound external emails. Correspondences we are sending outside the district or those that we are trying to receive from someone outside the district are not going through.

We've been notified that it will likely be another 24 hours without external email service while we wait for a part to be delivered and installed. Please plan accordingly.

Dragon Sympathy

We are sad to inform our Dragon community of the death of Aaron Anderson. His sister Kelley, is a sophomore at Carroll High School and a member of our tennis team. Aaron is the son of Eubanks Intermediate School teacher Kim Anderson and Grant Anderson, a former CISD employee who now works at the Region XI Education Service Center. Aaron, a Carroll graduate from the class of 2010, was involved in an automobile accident in Wisconsin where he worked and attended college.

Our trained CISD counseling team will be available to assist employees and students at each campus as needed and for as long as they are needed. We do not have information yet on funeral arrangements, but will share details with our community as it becomes available.

Our sympathy is with the Andersons during this very difficult time. We appreciate your care and support for all those in the Dragon family affected by this tragedy.
