We are aware that some families are receiving multiple emails regarding transportation. These are obviously being sent in error and we apologize for the inconvenience. We are working with the company to correct the problem, and will update everyone as needed. Thank you for your patience as we work through this new system!

Also this week, a variety of Caroline staff participated in professional development involving language development, learner engagement, and incorporating communication devices into the educational setting. Best of all, they were able to video with someone who communicates using a device that was not available to him until he was in college. A great learning experience for staff as we build on communication skills for all learners!

Remember those school supplies from Choptank Electric Cooperative? Our eager Community Schools Coordinators swooped in to get them! The hallway was buzzing with elementary and secondary swapping and sharing, making sure their students are well supplied for #CarolineBTS25.

And remember the backpacks from ESFCU that arrived at our warehouse? Careful on Rt. 313 because the coordinators might be headed that way!

🚍 Bus Rider Families - we're trying something new this year! We're rolling out a new notification system to share bus route info.

Early next week, families of PreK-4, Kindergarten & 6th grade students should receive an email with bus details.

If all goes smoothly 🙌 , we’ll continue the process for other students later in the week.

Big thanks to our Transportation Department for all their hard work. It’s Year One for this new system, so a few 🤞 and good vibes are welcome!

Thanks for your patience, Caroline Family!

During New Teacher Orientation, we mentioned once or twice (okay, probably more) that we have the most supportive community partners ever, and that's why we were able to feed everyone so well! Here are just a few photos from the week.

Meals and such were sponsored by Caroline Retired Teachers Association, Pep-Up, Inc., American Fidelity, Preston Automotive Group, Jersey Mike's, Nice Farms Ice Cream, Burke & Herbert Bank, and Caroline County Educators Association (CCEA).

We had a fantastic time welcoming our new 2025-2026 teachers to the Caroline Family! Beginning with breakfast last week, rolling through sessions on a variety of topics, meeting many of our amazing community partners, working with administrators and supervisors, having some fun and eating, eating, eating - it was quite a week. Check out a few photos from the sessions.
