LUMBERTON — A golden year is on the horizon at L. Gilbert Carroll Middle School, where Golden Knights can expect plenty of excitement, new opportunities and an environment that encourages every student to shine and be all they can be.
As students begin the new school year, they can expect an environment where excellence is more than a goal—it’s part of the culture. Through high-quality instruction, positive relationships and consistent expectations, L. Gilbert Carroll Middle School is focused on helping every Golden Knight learn, grow and reach their full potential, according to Principal Zach Jones.
“Guided by our theme, ‘Every Knight. Every Day. With PRIDE and Purpose,’ we are committed to ensuring that every classroom reflects engaging instruction, strong character, and a relentless belief that all students can achieve at high levels. We are proud of the dedication of our teachers, the resilience of our students, and the unwavering support of our families and community partners as we work together to make Carroll Middle School a place where every student thrives,” Jones said.
But, the work isn’t centered on student success within the school walls, it is about much more.
“At Carroll Middle School, we don't simply prepare students for the next grade; we prepare them for life,” Jones said.
That preparation means equipping students with the confidence, character and skills they need to take on challenges, embrace opportunities and make a difference wherever their paths may lead.
“Every Knight deserves the opportunity to learn, lead, and succeed, and together we will pursue excellence every day with pride and purpose,” he added.
