Carleton aides cut as services move to the county ESC
What happened
Carleton School will no longer take school-age children. Starting in 2026-27, the Athens-Meigs Educational Service Center takes over these services and becomes the fiscal agent. The board cut six personal-assistant aide jobs tied to Carleton and the county Board of Developmental Disabilities.
Why it matters to families
Students with developmental disabilities who were served at Carleton will get services in a new way, with different staff.
