Education The educational facilities at Carroll County are rather under developed compared to other districts in the region. With some of the lowest test scores in the state, few students have the opportunity to further their education past the high school level. Many students graduate and immediately begin work in factories, where often they work for the rest of their lives. Others somehow make it out of the county and attend universities around the state, and sometimes even the country. Although this percentage is shockingly low the individuals who actually do make it outside of this economically depressed region tend to accomplish great things. According to the latest study only 1 in 40 graduates actually attend college and graduate.
