Founded in 1961, Carrollton School of the Sacred Heart is part of the world-wide network of Sacred Heart Schools inspired by the vision of St. Madeleine Sophie Barat who founded the first school in France in 1801. Since that time, Sacred Heart education has been known for excellence. At Carrollton over 700 girls and young women, from the three year olds in the Montessori to our graduating seniors, enjoy the rigor of Sacred Heart education. Our students are prepared for lives of courage and confidence. Such preparation is accomplished deliberately, guiding students to realize the spiritual, intellectual, emotional, and physical dimensions of their lives. Here, students experience the transformative power of God’s love for each of them. Secure in that knowledge, students develop a deep and enduring capacity for scholarly engagement and social justice.

As the only all-girls school grades preK-12 in the State of Florida, Carrollton serves as the leading advocate for girls’ education. We believe that single gender schools provide the most powerful, transformative learning environments for students.

As educators we remain sensitive to the unique developmental needs at each stage of girls’ and young women’s learning. Carrollton’s two campuses offer ideal settings to students and teachers for their mutual enterprise of wondering, seeing, analyzing, debating, thinking, praying, challenging and dreaming. We are convinced that the quality of the future depends on the choices to be made by well-educated, thinking, confident people. Nothing short of excellence in our students’ education will prepare them to assume such leadership.
