There’s no school system more dedicated to being the best, from academics to athletics to the arts. And all is accomplished with a versatile mix of students from very diverse backgrounds, taught by committed professionals who believe in success for all students – epitomizing the essence of what public education is all about.
Carrollton City Schools not only serves the children of Carrollton, but others who may enroll as non-resident, tuition-paying students. In fact, roughly a third of the system's enrollment is made up of these students who have opted to become part of the tradition of excellence the school system has enjoyed since its establishment in 1886.
Among the school system's amenities is a centralized 130-acre campus that houses four schools serving more than 4,500 students: Carrollton High School (9-12), Carrollton Junior High (6-8), Carrollton Middle School (4-5) and Carrollton Elementary (PreK-3). While there is plenty of documentation to demonstrate the school system's educational philosophy and intent, our vision statement sums it up best: The Carrollton City Schools and community nurture and empower individuals to be life-long learners who take personal responsibility for improving our world.
