Welcome to John Carroll Catholic High School
Thank you for your interest in exploring a Catholic education for your child.
Applications for the 2026–2027 school year are now open; however, many of our grade levels are currently at capacity with an active waiting list. Families are encouraged to schedule a campus visit prior to submitting an application so we can help you determine space availability and next steps.
Applications for the 2027–2028 school year will open at the end of October, following the release of first‑quarter report cards for current students.
To receive admissions updates and important reminders, please complete our New Student Inquiry Form.
John Carroll High School is the only Catholic High School in the four-county area. Since its founding, JCHS has been devoted to the spiritual, academic, physical, and emotional growth of our student body.
A child can make incredible progress and achievement with faith at the center of their education. At JCHS, we see this not only in our high graduation rates, college test scores, and scholarships but also every day through the journey of our students and alums.
Our students say it best. See why they chose John Carroll and how this community has helped them grow in faith, confidence, and belonging. Click Here: You Belong Here.
