We have one alumni of and one current student at CCHS. They have both taken full advantage of what CCHS has to offer in terms of academics and activities! Our children are very different from each other in terms of academic tracks and interests. CCHS has offered them both the ability to take the pathway that best fits their aspirations and interest areas. They have: taken AP courses, attended Warren Tech, participated on sports teams(no cut) football, basketball, poms, cross country. track, and baseball, participated in theatre productions fall and spring, and been members of various bands(concert/jazz) as well as choirs(concert/specialty). They have also participated in various school clubs and organizations like student government. Our experience at CCHS has been and continues to be amazing! We are so grateful for the teachers, coaches, counselors, and administrators that have worked with our children over the years! If you are looking for a more personalized HS experience CCHS is it!

This school is fantastic! The teachers and staff are highly dedicated and committed to student learning and personal growth. It has string ties to the community and values parent involvement. Our experience at Carlson was top notch!

The teachers here are amazing! All the teachers, and staff, know every single kids name in the whole school. The classes are small, average of about 9-10 kids per teacher. Everyone there is so sweet and welcoming. It is a village educating the kids, not just left to one teacher alone. They have the most amazing SPED teacher, who made a world of difference to one of our students. However, all of the teachers connect with the families and students to ensure excellent learning and fun.

Both of our children attended CCMS and took advantage of all it has to offer! Small class sizes, supportive, dedicated teachers and staff, so many opportunities for learning (set up for HS), and MS sports, music, and theatre. Our children participated on the football and basketball teams, as well as the band, choir, and theatre groups. Their/and our middle school experience was positively excellent!
