School Notes

At Carrollton, we believe the future will belong to well-educated, thinking, confident people.
More importantly, we are convinced that the quality of the future depends on the choices to be made by these same people.
We want our students to become such leaders.
Nothing short of excellence in their education will prepare them to assume such leadership.
Only a total education inclusive of spiritual, intellectual, emotional and physical challenge can be called excellent.
We engage in this education as a member of the Network of Sacred Heart Schools.
Together we share a commitment to the goals and criteria of Sacred Heart education.
The five goals of Sacred Heart education give vitality to Carrollton. All of our educators, students, parents, alumnae share in the commitment to educate to a personal and active faith in God; a deep respect for intellectual values; a social awareness that impels to action; the building of community as a Christian value; and personal growth in an atmosphere of wise freedom.

Carrollton School of the Sacred Heart was founded in 1961. Carrollton is an all-girl Catholic college preparatory day school in Coconut Grove, Florida, educating girls and young women ages 3-18. Sponsored by the Society of the Sacred Heart, Carrollton is the only pre-K-12 girls school in the state of Florida. We develop confident young women who are responsible, creative and compassionate by encouraging them to become risk-takers, to seek challenges and to develop leadership. We are committed to excellence in education and believe that only a total education inclusive of spiritual, intellectual, emotional and physical challenge can be called excellent.
