Student Profile

Lower School – Many young children come to Carroll struggling with the basic skills of reading, such as difficulty making the connection between the letters on a page and the sounds they make in a word. Not all students have precisely this decoding problem, but most Carroll Lower School students find reading challenging.

Middle School – Some children enter Carroll’s Middle School still working to master the fundamentals of reading, but many arrive with the basics in place. For most, the reading task is quite laborious and inefficient. Other aspects of written language may also be challenging such as reading fluency, comprehension, spelling, written expression, and/or learning efficiency.

Upper School – Most students join the Upper School as readers, but many are still inefficient learners and/or dysfluent readers. Others may arrive having mastered much of the reading task but find organizational/time demands, written expression, and academic efficiency to be significant roadblocks to their school success.

Admission Cycle

The Admission process is rolling for all three schools. The Carroll School reviews applications as they receive them and make admissions decision throughout the school year. However, after March 1st, applications will be reviewed on a space available basis as some grades may be filled by then.
