Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s),

CARROLL COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT CHILD FIND PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN 2022-2023 

The Carroll County School District is participating in an ongoing statewide effort to identify, locate, and evaluate children birth through age 21 who are physically, intellectually, communicatively and/or emotionally disabled. Early identification of children in need of special educational experiences is most important to each child. Furthermore, this information gathered from contacts with parents and other agencies will be used to help determine present and future program needs as progress is made toward the goal of providing a free appropriate public education to all disabled children. 

Information which could identify an individual child will be maintained by this agency and will be provided to other agencies only in accordance with the Family Rights and Privacy Act and EHA-B. As a parent, you are guaranteed the right to inspect any such information about your child and to challenge its accuracy. Access to this information is forbidden to any unauthorized person without informed consent. If you have any questions regarding the collection, maintenance and use of this data about your child, please contact Dr. Wendy Hubbard, Child Find Director for the Carroll County School District, by calling 662-237-444  or writing to her at the following address:
