John Carroll School history

1964 In September of 1964, Robert C. Smith '66, Madeliene Humphrey '66, Fred Tyson '67, and Diane Tucker '67 transferred from Immaculata High School (as part of Our Lady Of Fatima Parish) to John Carroll as the first African-American students in our school history.

With the vision of Monsignor Michael Beerhalter, who succeeded Father Gabriel, the high school was then renamed again in 1965 to John Carroll High School.

Archbishop Carroll High Schools' history begins in 1967, originally two separate secondary schools, Archbishop John Carroll for Boys and Archbishop John Carroll for Girls.

That commitment was renewed in the 1980's and 90's by Robert Hoderny, a teacher who began the social justice course at Carroll and demanded that students be critical thinkers, social activists, and filled with school spirit.
