Limestone County Schools

Good going! On June 26th the News Courier reported that Limestone County Schools had achieved County wide accreditation. This is a more prestigious achievment than an individual school attaining accreditation since it means the entire county school system is accredited. The accreditation was granted based on a review by an AdvancEd quality assurance team. So, how good is this accomplishment? John Wayne King, County School Board member said it may be the first county wide accreditation in the state. The News Courier quoted our County Schools Superintendent Barry Carroll saying "This is a huge accomplishment by our district." He also said, "The visiting team members were very impressed with our school system. I believe they recognized that our employees are our greatest strength. They saw evidence of our mission, goals and objectives and how we work together as a team to provide a quality education for all our students."
