Carthage ISD Adopts Mission, Vision, Goals

BK students are learning about World War 2

At the April 15 board meeting, the board of trustees adopted the revised mission, vision, and goals.  CLICK HERE to read them.

A mission describes what every employee must be focused on in their daily work in Carthage ISD.  The vision describes what we, as a district, aspire to become in 5 years, and the goal shows the 3 year goal that we wish to reach academically.  To support this, the board identified 5 priorities that they will fulfill in order to support the district in fulfilling the mission, vision and goals.  Finally, our motto is our calling card to remind us and everyone in the community what Carthage ISD is stands for, "Where Champions are Educated".
