Required Student Immunizations: 6th & 7th grade parents - It is time to update your child’s immunizations.  NC state law requires that all students who are 12 or are entering 7th grade, must have updated Tdap and meningitis immunizations. Student immunizations must be updated before students can begin 7th grade.  Please contact your primary health care provider or the health department for these required immunizations.  If your child already has updated  immunizations this year, please send a copy of the immuniation record to the school if you have not already done so.

Summer Camp: Carrington will host a summer camp July 10-27th. The camp will offer ELA, Math, STEAM, SEL and physical activity.  The days and hours of operation are 8:15 am - 3:30 pm, Monday-Thursday.  Transportation, breakfast, lunch, snacks and field trips are offered at no charge to the student.  The application is located on our website.  Please contact Ms. Applewhite at terry_applewhite@dpsnc.net or (919) 287-5699.
