About
Since the inception of Carrollwood Day School in 1982, we have prided ourselves on being a community of learners. We have grown from a preschool into a comprehensive program with three divisions through high school. Carrollwood Day School stands out as a leader in its commitment to educate the whole child and is recognized nationally for its academic excellence and its innovative school-wide emphasis on character development. In short, we have PATRIOT PRIDE in everything we do at CDS.
We are excited to be celebrating 40 Years of Education With Character!
