Cardinal Carter was established in 1989, commencing operation for grades eight and nine at Our Lady of the Annunciation elementary school. Once construction of the school was completed, service boundaries were defined by the school board to alleviate overcrowding of other Roman Catholic schools in the region, notably St. Robert and St. Elizabeth high schools in Thornhill, and Sacred Heart Catholic High School in Newmarket. It takes its name after Cardinal Gerald Emmett Carter, former archbishop of Toronto. It is also sometimes confused with Cardinal Carter Academy for the Arts. Cardinal Carter Catholic High School reported its first case of COVID-19 on Sunday, September 27, 2020. The investigation into said case was officially closed on Monday, October 12, having reported no new cases or any suspicion of an outbreak.
