Welcome Parents!
"Parents are the first and most important educators of their own children, and they also possess a fundamental competence in this area: they are educators because they are parents... Dear families, you should be fearless, ever ready to give witness to the hope that is in you, since the Good Shepherd has put that hope in your hearts through the Gospel. Do not be afraid of the risks! God's strength is always far more powerful than your difficulties!"
-Pope John Paul II in his Letter to Families
What parents think about Bishop Carroll
| “It is important that a school provide a solid academic foundation and a reasonable number of extracurricular activities for its students. Bishop Carroll does so. But for us, the deciding factor in the choice where to send our children for high school is the ability of Bishop Carroll to infuse the entire day with religion. Academics and activities are presented in a way that reinforces the morals and values that we present to our children at home.” |

| “Bishop Carroll provides our children with strong academics and a clear moral focus, based on our faith. We really value this education that addresses the whole person-so that our children will become moral, well-educated adults.” |

| “Bishop Carroll provides our children with a faith-filled atmosphere not only in the classroom but in every aspect of daily living. We have chosen to send our children to Bishop Carroll so that they can be nourished deeper in their faith and become God-loving young adults who venture into the world and make it a better place.” |

| “We send our children to Bishop Carroll because it is our duty as Catholics to give them the best Catholic education possible. At BC they get five, 40-minute classes about their faith every week, compared to one hour at Religious Ed. They also have the opportunity to go to Mass together on holy days and special times. The uniforms are great, too-no hassles every morning.” |

| “My BC experience is best summarized as follows: a Christ–centered, character building, and values-driven education. My education and life experiences at Bishop Carroll provided a strong foundation for the future. I have had one son graduate from BC and another is currently a senior. I have realized that, while the quality education has been enhanced and strengthened over the years, I am encouraged that the core values, Christ centered environment, and mission of the school are the same as they were in the seventies.” |
