Dear Parents,

Welcome to West Carroll Primary School!

Mission: Our mission is to educate the whole child by providing options and opportunities for success.

I am Jackie Coleman Wester- Adams, a proud 1989 graduate of the West Carroll Special School District. I attended The University of Tennessee at Martin where I received a Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood education, a Master's in Administration and Supervision and completed my +30-hours above my Masters. I started my teaching career in 1995 and was blessed to have the opportunity to come back home to the West Carroll Special School District in 1998 as a teacher. I have been the principal at West Carroll Primary School since 2011.

We have an awesome group of students, teachers and staff!

West Carroll Special School District is a "Great" district to be in and I am proud to be a product of it!

About The School  

West Carroll Primary School is located in the community of McLemoresville and serves approximately 280 children in grades Pre-K through second. The building is located on a site that has been dedicated to education for many years. Bethel College was founded here in 1842 and used this location until it moved to McKenzie in 1872. The present building where West Carroll Primary is located was originally opened in 1957 as a county school that served students in grades K-8. The facility was expanded in 1989 to house students from the Lavinia School that was closed the same year.

West Carroll Primary is a Title 1 school-wide school. All teachers and teacher assistants meet highly qualified requirements as defined by the state of Tennessee. Pre-K has two homerooms and grades one and two have five sections each. All classrooms meet the state mandated student teacher ratio of 1:20. Group guidance, physical education, music, art, and library services are available to all students. The facility has 22 classrooms, cafeteria, fully equipped media center, and physical education building. Special Services are available to students with any special needs. A learning lab is available that provides computer assisted instruction in reading and math. West Carroll Primary is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).
