Five West Carroll Seniors Graduate from Carroll County Youth Leadership Cohort
From the Mar 3, 2026 e-Edition
West Carroll Jr./Sr. High School faculty and staff proudly congratulate five seniors who recently graduated from the Carroll County Youth Leadership Class of 2026. This selective program brings together student leaders from across the county to develop leadership skills, build community awareness and gain a deeper understanding of local government, business and civic responsibility.
Throughout the year, participants engaged in leadership development sessions, toured local industries, met with community leaders and explored the many systems that help Carroll County operate and grow. The experience is designed to equip students with confidence, communication skills and a broader perspective on how they can positively impact their communities.
West Carroll’s 2026 graduates include: Kahli Baum, Kalee Coleman, Arlexis Perry, Chandler Rimmer and Hayden Weaver.
These students represented West Carroll with professionalism and pride while strengthening their leadership abilities alongside peers from across the county.
Carroll County Youth Leadership continues to be a valuable opportunity for students to grow beyond the classroom and connect learning to real-world experiences. West Carroll staff are grateful to Brad Hurley and the Carroll County Chamber of Commerce for this great opportunity, and are proud of these seniors for completing the program, looking forward to seeing how they use their leadership skills in the future.
