Students in the school age classrooms are taught life skills and employability skills. 

Employability skills are also developed in community businesses such as intern experiences at Knickers, local church, bowling alley, and Carroll County Board office.  

It is our hope to provide the students with the tools necessary to live as independently as possible following the conclusion of their school program.

Student Empowerment - Speaking Out for Yourself

Student Empowerment is intended to empower students with disabilities. 

We encourage individuality, independence, informed decision making, and taking control of their education by being an active participant in the IEP process. 

We focus heavily on rights as well as responsibilities in everyday life. 

Academy for Leadership Abilities (ALA)

Academy for Leadership Abilities Program originated at the Perry County DD with Perry County  co-authors focusing on ethics, integrity, personal core values, leadership, and more.

This program was implemented at Carrollton High School and Carroll Hills High School once a month and will be expanded on to other school districts in the 2023-24 school year.

ALA’s motto is: “Doing the right things for the right reasons with the right people every single time to the best of our ability even when no one is looking.”
