West Carroll High School seniors are getting a head start on life after high school. 🎓
As part of Tennessee College Application & Exploration Month, seniors met with Sydney Roney from UT Martin to learn how to apply to college, explore scholarship options, and take steps toward their next chapter.
From waived application fees to important deadlines and campus visit info, students left the session feeling more confident and informed about their path forward.

Money Lessons That Matter: Learning from Local Experts
Students in Coach Cobb’s Personal Finance class recently learned budgeting and banking basics from local experts at Centennial Bank.
Thank you to Ginger Foster and Molly McAlpin for sharing smart money strategies and helping our students build real-world financial skills.
This hands-on session focused on budgeting, checking accounts, and the financial habits that set students up for success after graduation.
What a great example of how learning can be practical, personal, and connected to the future.
