🚍 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!

So many devices, so little time! And yet our amazing Technology Department make sure staff and students have what's needed to start the new year, which includes processing close to 6,000 devices.

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.

college visit

New Teacher Orientation continued today with a bus tour of Caroline County, from Marydel to Federalsburg and points in between, including all 10 schools. Tour Guides Dr. Simmons, Dr. Willoughby, and Mr. Gestole pointed out places of interest, and shared cool details, historical facts, and maybe a few tall tales 😉. Buses also stopped at the Support Services Center so everyone could learn about the variety of programs in Food Services. Drivers Mr. Buckle and Mr. Ragolio made sure to circle all bus loops so schools could welcome the new teachers. It was a fun and enlightening #CarolineFamily day!
