(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - My daughter was able to spend her very first year here. Her father and I grew up in northern NY and left for kentucky 4 years ago. They struggle down south where education is concerned. We are rethinking our choice of residence and may be moving back. The fact most kids there in northern ny have proper education and proper guidence is very vital. We love carthage schools and are proud of all the teachers and staff.
