Juniors! Do you want to get some help with your upcoming ACT? Sign up for the Super Saturday Sessions!
The Super Saturday sessions aim to help students feel more comfortable and confident tackling the ACT. These sessions allow students to work one-on-one or in small groups with content experts to help expand their understanding of English, Math, Reading, or Science. Super Saturdays also allow students to work on non-content issues like test anxiety and navigating timed tests. While priority registration is given to juniors, it is open to any student scheduled to take the ACT in the spring.
Here is the link for students (or their parents) to sign up:

Panther fans, don't forget that tonight is the CCHS Homecoming! Hope to see you in the stands supporting our students. The first game begins at 6 p.m. with crowning to be held between games. Remember, digital tickets are also available now.
Carroll County High School has begun offering digital tickets for athletic events.
Fans will have the option to use Eventlink for digital ticketing at all CCHS athletic events. This only applies to the high school athletic events. Tickets will be available at the gate with a credit/debit card and cash will also be accepted at the gate.
"Using Eventlink digital ticketing at Carroll County High School is all about making things easier and more efficient for our community. It streamlines the process for fans, reduces the hassle at the gate, and keeps us aligned with modern trends in high school athletics," said CCHS Athletic Director Scott Anderson.
Admission prices were raised to $6 for adults and $3 for students to offset the costs associated with digital ticketing. Students will still get in free if they wear Carroll County School colors of black and yellow.
Tickets can be purchased through the Eventlink app or website, https://eventlink.fans/buy-tickets
