Carterville Elementary School

In 1968 the Carterville School District consolidated with Webb City to form the Webb City R-7 School District. The Carterville School building would be used as an elementary school for all Carterville students with the junior and senior high grades attending classes in Webb City. The old Central School building was razed in 1971 to make way for a new kitchen and lunchroom that was completed in 1974.

In 1988 four classrooms were added on the north side of the Carterville School and a new Kindergarten pod was built in 2000.

In June 2006, Superintendent Ron Lankford and architect Jim Latimer made a recommendation to the School Board to accept a 2.9 million dollar bid from Dalton-Killinger Construction of Joplin for construction of a new elementary school. The old school building would be torn down leaving only the 1988 classroom addition and kindergarten pod that was built in 2000. The Board of Education voted to approve the contract with construction set to begin in 2007.  

In 2010, four more classrooms were added to the south side of the new building to expand the district's early childhood program.

Carterville Elementary School is located at 210 East Hall Street, Carterville, MO.
