Carroll Senior High School (Southlake, Texas) - History

History

Carroll ISD operates one high school; however, it has a "split campus" (two separate buildings and administration, but one school) of Carroll Senior High School and Carroll High School. Carroll ISD graduated its first senior class in 1965 in the original Carroll School off of Carroll Avenue. Carroll Middle/High School, off of Dove Road, served district middle school and high school students from 1970 to 1981 until Carroll Middle School got its own building: the original Carroll School.

From 1981 to 1992, Carroll High School was located at the Dove Road campus. In 1992, the new Carroll High school opened off of Southlake Boulevard, serving as the current Senior High. Before the 2002-2003 school year, Carroll Senior High was the home campus for all high school grade levels and was called Carroll High School. Carroll Junior High School was restructured into the high school to hold only 9th and 10th graders at the close of the 2001-02 school year. Both schools have upheld an exemplary rating per the TEA.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    The reverence for the Scriptures is an element of civilization, for thus has the history of the world been preserved, and is preserved.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    It’s a very delicate surgical operation—to cut out the heart without killing the patient. The history of our country, however, is a very tough old patient, and we’ll do the best we can.
    Dudley Nichols, U.S. screenwriter. Jean Renoir. Sorel (Philip Merivale)

    Every generation rewrites the past. In easy times history is more or less of an ornamental art, but in times of danger we are driven to the written record by a pressing need to find answers to the riddles of today.... In times of change and danger when there is a quicksand of fear under men’s reasoning, a sense of continuity with generations gone before can stretch like a lifeline across the scary present and get us past that idiot delusion of the exceptional Now that blocks good thinking.
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
