Congratulations to Mrs. Jaime Carrol on her recognition as the May 2023 FCPS CARES Region 5 Recipient of the Month, presented by the FCPS Department of Human Resources. 

The FCPS CARES Program is an opportunity for parents, staff, and community members to recognize FCPS employees for going above and beyond to help others and show they care. We invite you to submit your story below, so we can all acknowledge the good work of FCPS employees.

Below are two different write-ups submitted by two Canterbury Woods Elementary School parents.

Mrs. Carroll is an absolute gem. She is amazing at differentiating a class full of elementary learners and always makes sure my child is working right at the edge of her capabilities, learning, and growing. Mrs. Carroll calls her students her "smart cookies" and gives them the confidence to live up to that name. My child believes in her math, social studies, science, and reading skills because of Mrs. Carroll. My child will be fully ready for second grade thanks to all she's learned this year. Mrs. Carroll is also wonderful at truly living out the FCPS ideal of meeting each child as an individual. She really connects with her students and sees them for who they are, then brings out the best in them. Most of all this year I have been impressed with how Mrs. Carroll builds community in her class. On top of all her amazing teaching, she manages to bring the students together as friends. A warm community of learning is such an amazing gift she gives to students year after year.

Mrs. Carroll is an outstanding 1st grade teacher. She has taken our son who had little interest in reading to someone who loves to read and is extremely proud of all he has accomplished and learned under her tutelage. She is warm and supportive and just the right amount of tough. I have seen so much growth from him and I attribute it all to her.
