Going to Carlisle has been the best high school experience I could ask for. It’s the perfect size. The staff at CHS has helped be grow not only as a student, but as a professional in the work field and life in general. The only thing I could ask for is for a longer lunch period!
It wasn't too big a school, which made it easier to get to know my classmates and teachers alike. The school tries their utmost best to help their students succeed academically, despite whether or not their help is received well. They genuinely care for their students wellbeing. However, while they may have good intentions, they don't really take the opinions of the student body as a whole very seriously. They'll listen, but won't act.
Overall Carlisle is decent. It isn’t the worse but it isn’t the best. We have decent academics, but we need more college opportunities for underclassmen. I think they focus too much on tag, which doesn’t accurately reflect all the students that should be in it, as it’s all test scores, which doesn’t 100% portray. Socially we aren’t the best or most accepting, but we aren’t the worst. It’s a predominantly white school.
