Carroll High School Weekly Newsletter: 8.2.26

Carroll Family,

The start of a new school year is just around the corner, and we are excited to welcome everyone back to Mary Carroll High School for an incredible year ahead!

As we prepare to celebrate 70 years of Tiger tradition, we invite all of our incoming freshmen and families to join us for Freshman Orientation on Thursday, August 6, at 6:00 p.m. This is a great opportunity to meet our staff, explore the campus, and begin your high school journey with confidence.

Then, come celebrate with the entire Carroll community at our annual Tiger Tailgate on Saturday, August 8, from 6:00–8:00 p.m. Join us as we kick off the school year with Tiger pride, reconnect with friends, and honor the legacy of Mary Carroll High School as we begin our 70th year.

We can't wait to welcome all of our students back bright and early on Tuesday, August 11, for the first day of school. Together, we will continue to build on our proud traditions while embracing new opportunities for growth and success.

Here's to an amazing year ahead as we keep our Tigers on the RISE!

Go Tigers!
