I attended Carlisle from Kindergarten through 12th grade and learned a lot in my classes. In high school, I was given the opprtunity to take 4 years of Spanish, take several Advanced Placement classes, and even get some college courses out of the way, all for free. I was able to participate in any activity I chose, which included helping out with the musical, competing in several Knowlege Bowls and other trivia teams, and running cross country. I never felt unwelcome or ostracized, and had a lot of friends there. Overall, I'd say it was a good 13 years and I would probably send my kids there too. A down side to Carlisle was that I never really felt challenged in my schoolwork until senior year, and I therefore didn't learn the work ethic required to thrive in college. I wish now that my teachers had pushed me harder even in Middle School. I was able to coast through almost all of my classes, leading to me not being able to do work at all if I didn't understand something.
Carlisle school district is great. The schools want students to take ownership of their own education. They hold us responsible for our assignments and have us host our own conferences with our parents to discuss our strengths and weaknesses. There is opportunities for us to participate in advanced classes as well as join leadership programs to help us further our education and leadership skills. Overall, great school district, great teachers and staff.
I moved to this school district when I was in elementary school and I am glad my parents decided to enroll me at Carlisle. I have had excellent teachers and I am able to connect with them when I have a small class. I am graduating this year and I appreciate the investment into the new band room from several years ago. I also appreciate all of the opportunities that the school has given me from AP classes to online classes offered by DMACC. Through these I feel prepared to enter college because I have taken tough classes. These opportunities have also helped me financially because it saves me money in my future education. The teachers at Carlisle make sure they are available for help and take measures to ensure the success of their students.
