West Carroll Elementary Hosts Math Carnival for Family Engagement
West Carroll Elementary School turned math into a night of fun and excitement during its Math Carnival held on March 31, 2026. With a lively carnival theme, the event brought together students and their families for an evening focused on learning and community engagement.
The event took place at the Town of Trezevant’s walking track, where families enjoyed a variety of interactive activities. Students began the evening by visiting math stations tailored to their grade levels, solving problems that challenged their skills while reinforcing classroom learning.
After completing the math activities, students were rewarded with a range of carnival-style games, including giant Connect 4, Plinko, tic-tac-toe, ring toss, and more. The fun continued with face painting and classic treats such as hot dogs, cotton candy, snow cones, and popcorn.
Sixth-grade teacher Shanna Pafford shared her enthusiasm for the event, saying, “It was wonderful to see our students excited about math and enjoying time with their families. Events like this help show that learning can be fun, engaging, and something to celebrate together.”
The Math Carnival proved to be a successful evening, combining education and entertainment while strengthening connections between the school and its families.

We are excited to share that our very own Carson Cooper, West Tennessee Regional winner, has now been named the State Champion in FFA Beef Production - Placement SAE. This is the first-ever State Title earned by West Carroll FFA! Carson will now have the opportunity to compete and represent WCHS at the national level.
SAEs (Supervised Agricultural Experiences) are hands-on, student-led projects that allow FFA members to apply what they learn in the classroom to real-world agricultural careers.
We are incredibly proud of Carson, as well as our entire FFA program and sponsors, for representing West Carroll so well at the state level! Next stop: Nationals!!

🏀✖️➖➗➕Basketball + math = a winning combination in Mrs. Marcia Miller’s sixth-grade class. Students used NCAA tournament data to practice percentages, mean, median, and mode while working together to analyze real numbers and explain their thinking.
A fun, real-world way to show students the value of math in action.

Yesterday was such a special day at West Carroll as Elizabeth Clark returned for a visit and surprised her former students. Her love for West Carroll has always been clear, and it was a joy to welcome her back. The smiles from students and staff said it all, once an Eagle, always an Eagle. ❤️
🍀 WCP first graders in Mrs. Sherry Haywood’s class got creative building leprechaun traps and baiting them with gold coins… and you won’t believe what we caught! 👀✨ #STEMfun #LuckyLearners #WCSSD

Sixth graders in Mrs. Pafford's social studies class didn't just read about Ancient Greece. They dug into it.
Students recently compared the city-states of Athens and Sparta, researching five categories including geography, education, government, and the status of women. Groups chose how to present their findings, either through a virtual presentation or a poster, then shared their work with the class.
Two city-states. One civilization. Very different ways of life. And a room full of students who can now tell you exactly why that matters.
This is sixth grade social studies at West Carroll Elementary. ☘️

The "First Frontiers" reading program at West Carroll Elementary is producing results.
Seventy-three students in the "First Frontiers" reading program recently hit a major milestone, reaching 75 books read or 75 Accelerated Reader points. The First Frontiers reading program, designed by Mrs. Pat Hudgins, sets a goal for all students to read at least 100 books or earn at least 100 AR points by May 8th.
To mark the occasion, Principal Dr. Jessica Williams and staff hosted a St. Patrick's Day Library Lunch, with green decorations and cupcakes courtesy of Mrs. Shelia Hilliard and Mrs. Kay Story.
But the numbers tell their own story. More than 50 of those 73 students have already surpassed the school-wide goal of 100 books or 100 AR points set for May 8. One student has read over 200 books. Another has earned more than 200 AR points. One student has crossed 400.
Every student who meets the goal will be honored at the First Frontiers Grand Celebration on May 18.☘️
