We’ve hit the ground running at Dragons Care, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome our beloved Carroll ISD staff back for another school year! Before the first bell even rang, we were honored to be part of both New Hire Breakfast and Convocation, celebrating the incredible educators, staff, bus drivers, SROs, and support team members who make CISD such a special place.


At each event, we handed out Dragons Care notebooks as a simple reminder that we are here for our staff when they need us most. We hope each notebook serves as a small reminder of the care and support that surrounds our CISD family.

And we’re just getting started! We’d love to see you out and about in the community this fall. Come say hello at:

  • Celebrate Southlake — September 12
  • Southlake Hispanic Heritage Festival — September 26
  • Homecoming Carnival — October 7
  • Dragons Care Tailgate in Dragon Alley — October 30 — Save the Date!

We also want to take a moment to recognize and celebrate our wonderful Title Sponsors this year. Your generosity and commitment make it possible for Dragons Care to continue our mission of supporting CISD staff members through times of personal hardship. We are incredibly grateful for your partnership and belief in our mission.


And be on the lookout around town for our new Dragons Care yard signs, proudly recognizing our Emerald, Bronze, Silver, and Gold Sponsors. These signs are a small way for us to shine a light on the businesses and community members who help make our work possible.


Here’s to a new school year filled with connection, compassion, and plenty of Dragon pride. Cheers to another year of taking care of our own!

President

Dragons Care


Dragons Care wants to thank each of its title sponsors this year for the support they have shown to Dragons Care. We cannot fulfill our mission to Carroll ISD teachers, staff and School Resource Officers in their time of need without the financial backing of you and our title sponsors. Please make sure to visit each of these title sponsors and make sure to tell them how much you appreciate them stepping up for Dragons Care!


Meet our parent liaisons for the 2026-2027 school year!

Dragons Care relies on its volunteers to carry out its mission. This is particularly true when it comes to the parent liaisons who serve as the primary communication link between the teachers, staff and SROs at the various CISD campuses and Dragons Care. We appreciate their dedication to the cause. If you have questions regarding Dragons Care, please make sure to reach out to these parent liaisons and they will point you in the right direction.


Dragons Care is Ready to Celebrate Southlake's 70th Birthday

Dragons Care will be on hand to celebrate, connect and volunteer with the City of Southlake as it turns 70 years old this year. Make sure to join us with your friends and neighbors as we celebrate our wonderful community while we show off our Dragons Care pride. We cannot wait to see you as we Celebrate Southlake!



If you see these signs around the neighborhood, know that they are great supporters of Dragons Care. We have distributed these yard signs to our major donors and sponsors as well as all full-time volunteers. We would also like to thank Priority Signs & Graphics for their generous support of Dragons Care and for providing these signs at a special nonprofit rate.

Dragons Care Tailgate and Auction Returns October 30

The date for the Dragons Care Tailgate and Auction is set for October 30, 2026 at Touchdown Alley on Senior Night. Come celebrate another outstanding football season with Dragons Care and cheer on those seniors who will play their final regular season game. We expect the weather to be great and the atmosphere will be electric as the Dragons look to prepare one more time for what we all hope will be another long post-season run. Of course, we need your help to make this Tailgate and Auction successful. If you have any interest in donating an experience, gift cards, or a physical item, like an autographed football, basketball, etc., please click below and let us know. We look forward to celebrating another successful year of Dragon Football with Dragons Care


Three organizations, three different purposes, one goal.

We think it is important to make sure that our Dragons Care supporters understand the role Dragons Care plays to support CISD staff, teachers and SROs. Like the school PTOs and the Carroll Education Foundation, Dragons Care seeks to support the lifeline of our schools by supporting CISD frontline workers. In this respect, Dragons Care takes on the role of support standing ready to assist these personnel when they face significant obstacles outside the classroom such as illness, injury or family tragedy. Dragons Care appreciates your financial backing to ensure it can fill this important role to provide for CISD teachers, staff and SROs.
