We are Carrigan School

Learning Is Our Highest Priority"

Carrigan School offers an environment which fosters the growth of the individual. The school is designed to meet the unique educational, personal, physical, social and emotional needs of the fifth and sixth grade student. In addition to developing interpersonal relationships and respect for the values of others, each student has the opportunity for maximum growth in knowledge, confidence and self-worth.

Carrigan School offers a varied program of exploratory subjects and activities which strive to foster a student’s curiosity and willingness to learn. Our curriculum continues to develop and strengthen basic skills. Each group of students is taught by a cluster of teachers who rely upon common planning time for coordinating instruction and discussions centering on student development. The school provides an environment for successful achievement and challenges each student to perform to the best of his/her ability.
