History

Archbishop Carroll High School opened in 1951 and expressed the vision of Patrick A. O’Boyle, the first archbishop of the Archdiocese of Washington, who felt strongly that the Catholic Church should lead by example in the area of integration. Named in honor of John Carroll, the first Catholic archbishop in the United States, the school offered a college preparatory education for young men, regardless of race or ethnicity. For its first 40 years, the Augustinian Friars operated Archbishop Carroll.[1]

In 1989, the Archdiocese of Washington merged all four of its high schools – boys' schools Archbishop Carroll and Mackin, and girls' schools All Saints and Holy Spirit – into one school on the Archbishop Carroll site. [7]

In 2009, Archbishop Carroll High School became an International Baccalaureate World School,[3] offering the IB Diploma Programme.[8]
