Horrible experience. I could write a book. Pulled my kid out of this nightmare of a school.

I hate this school with a passion. Thankfully, we’re moving to another school district soon.

Most teachers take time to help students who need the extra help. They made my son feel very comfortable when he was scared that by the end of his first two years he grew so much

I have 6 children that either have or do attend Carlson. The principal sets an example of respect and discipline while maintaining a hands on approach to every students success. The staff and teachers are truly gifted and interested in your childs growth. Collectively they maintain the kind of family atmosphere where children will become productive and prepared leaders. Best school I've seen since I graduated through the Catholic school system. If you get the chance become a Carlson Knight.
