of local businesses, government and educators
working together to understand the requirements of
tomorrow’s workforce to begin preparing them today.
These relationships in Carroll County have drawn the
attention of businesses like Sugar Foods Corporation.

Program in creating a career pathway for students
and quite possibly our future workforce. There are a
lot of great things happening in Carroll County and
more to come.

Leadership and Government Relations Accomplishments
“Quality
In Carroll County our main focus is ‘A Great
of Life.’ This is a collaborative effort of all:
local government leaders, educators, healthcare
providers, industry executives, and small business
owners. No one entity is looking for credit and
everyone is equally responsible for our quality
and success. Our community has been successful
because we recognize each member’s strengths
and skills. We stay focused on the goals and do
whatever is necessary for success.
