I attended JC in the late 80's. I transferred in from a smaller school where, ironically, I was allowed to slip between the cracks. The staff and administration at JC made all the difference in the world. I was a mildly troubled kid who simply needed a positive environment where encouragement was the norm, and elitism was rare.
One of the finest high schools in the south... John Carroll has a rich, storied, tradition unparalleled by most high schools...coupled with teachers who actually care about the education, well-being, and development of their students, John Carroll is among the elite of high schools in the south, if not the entire country.
I went to John Carroll for 4 long years. It was the worst time of my life. JC is a great school to send your kids to if you have money. If you have money you will get a great education, if you don't have money go somewhere else. You'll be a lot happier.
Sending our child to John Carroll Catholic High School, which was her choice endorsed my us, was the best thing we did for our child's academic and leadership preparation for college. A senior this year, John Carroll has provided a competitive academic and leadership environment that caused her to grow, glow as she excelled in academics, responsibility, volunteerism, sports teambuilding , diversity building, oration skills and exercise of the fruit of the Holy Spirit. Students smile a lot at John Carroll. Take a visit and just look at the students as they interact with each other in 'The Commons'. That's what I did when I took my child on an initial tour. The students possess some type of euphoria that's catching and makes you smile as you watch them. My child 'caught the Spirit', had a good attitude, stayed focused on her personal goals and excelled. Thank God for John Carroll.
