My kids both graduated from CHS. They were prepared in every way to succeed at the next level, mainly because of an environment that doesn't accept anything less than your best effort. I had more than one teacher tell me that they had never seen a place like CHS -- where the peer pressure is to perform. If your kids are willing to work hard, they will be in the best environment you can imagine. If they are slackers, they will be miserable here.
Football program is the best in the nation. Excellent sense of community involvement and tons of civic pride. Drive the neighborhoods and you will see the Dragon emblem posted in front yards all over with what extra cirricular activity their child participates in. Go Dragons!
We moved to Southlake for several reasons, but the schools were one. THe Sr. High school is awesome. The academics are stand out. THe sports also stand out. Volunteers are at every school in the district. This is an affluent area which allows more volunteers. It also has caused more drugs. Good place for your kids to learn, but there is a lot of peer pressure.
AP classes are where the best teachers and academic instruction are. There is alot of emphasis on attendance. The overall atmosphere is one of good school spirit and kids who intend to go to college. The art department is not big but the instructor is very good and kids really like this teacher. Sports are very important to the kids as well as to the community. There is is huge support for all sports especially football which is very high caliber. The Choir program is strong at Carroll. The band is quite large and is very well respected. The band director has been at Carroll for 30 plus years. The band program starts in sixth grade and is important and many many kids start in the sixth grade and remain through high school. The theatre department has had turn over but still retains many students interested in the arts.
