We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The worst part is honestly the students and the best part for me personally is marching band and indoor percussion.

I've had a great experience at Carroll, while it has not been perfect I believe that I really has prepared me for my future. There are many opportunities for me to grow my knowledge in my field of interest.

Although Carroll High School has a very high level of academics, many of their teachers do not meet the level of education that the school expects from students. Also, to rise to the top of the class, it is significantly harder to do so because of the competition between the large numbers of students. Carroll does provide many opportunities and activities, however, so the good outweighs the bad.
