Convergence!!
In March, 2006, the Carthage, Dallas City, and LaHarpe school districts voted to combine their high schools starting in the 2007/2008 school year. Elementary districts will remain. This action will allow the larger, combined high school to offer a wider variety of competitive classes, both to vo-tech students and to college-bound students. This new High School district will be a proud combination of districts that have served their students well, but will now be able to do even better.
Carthage students are still in school, so please be careful driving. They are all studying pretty hard, but there's still time for play, so we don't want any accidents...
Keep watching here, and on the individual school sites, for more school information and fun!
Be safe, we love our kids!

The Carthage
School District Foundation was established in the mid-90's with
the goal of creating a source of extra funds for the school district,
for use by parents, teachers, and students. Check their
website for additional information.
The district is very active in sports and extra-cirricular academics.
You can find examples of this at the district
pages, as the students help them evolve.
