Student Resources

Due to ongoing construction and the loss of satellite parking at Carroll Community College, CTC has very limited parking spots available to students. As a result, only students with dual enrollment at Carroll Community College, in their fall schedules will be eligible for a CTC parking permit. This is a change from the policy in the spring. Permits from the spring are no longer valid. CCPS provides transportation to and from the students’ home school everyday. Fall parking permits for students with dual enrollment at CCC will be available for purchase for $10, beginning August 24, 2022. Please find the parking permit application attached. Students need to bring their driver’s license, car registration, $10, and a completed signed form to CTC. Student’s schedule will be verified before the permit is issued. CTC Parking Permit Application (4).pdf

1. Our students are professional

Carroll County Career and Tech Center strives to give students an authentic, real-life experience.  Our classrooms look like the shop, business, hospital, restaurant, and salon that students will work in once they graduate from CCCTC. Further, their teachers have worked in the chosen field and know what it takes to be successful.  Students are asked to achieve industry standards in safety, planning, preparing, and producing. BUT that is not all that sets our students apart after they graduate.  CCCTC also stresses professional standards.  Every program stresses professionalism and every student's professionalism is evaluated.

Areas of Focus Are Unity, Safety, Productivity, and Reliability.  (Click on the links below to learn more.)
