About The School
West
Carroll Primary School is located in the community of McLemoresville
and serves approximately 280 children in grades Pre-K through second.
The building is located on a site that has been dedicated to education
for many years. Bethel College was founded here in 1842 and used this
location until it moved to McKenzie in 1872. The present building where
West Carroll Primary is located was originally opened in 1957 as a
county school that served students in grades K-8. The facility was
expanded in 1989 to house students from the Lavinia School that was
closed the same year.
