The Carroll County School System is pleased to announce that Ruben Rivadeneira, senior at Villa Rica High School, is the 2018 ESOL Star English Learner and Mrs. Rachel Herman is the 2018 ESOL Star Teacher.
Rivadeneira and Mrs. Herman have been chosen from nominees in 51 schools systems to represent Zone III at the upcoming awards ceremony with Georgia’s School Superintendent, Mr. Richard Woods.
