Dr. Ecker invites folks to visit schools during American Education week

An invitation, from the Carroll County School Superintendent Dr. Charles Ecker, to parents and the community to visit schools during American Education Week

Tue 11/11/2008

Dear Editor,

The week of November 16 – 22 is American Education Week. I would like to extend a warm welcome to our parents and members of the community to come see firsthand the wonderful things taking place in our schools.

The theme for American Education Week this year is Great Public Schools: A Basic Right and Our Responsibility. More than ever before this statement is true. Every one of our students deserves the best education we can provide for them. It is their right and our responsibility as a school system. It is also the responsibility of parents and the community to support education in Carroll County. As part of that responsibility, I encourage you to take the time to visit a school in your community this week. I think you will be amazed at what our students and staff are accomplishing.

And please consider this. The time to visit our schools is not just during American Education Week. You are welcome to visit our schools anytime throughout the year. Our doors are always open to you. Take the time to be involved. As I have said many times before, we cannot do it alone. We need you. For us to be successful and for our student to succeed, we must all work together.


Chuck Ecker
Superintendent of Schools
