H. Frank Carey High School Reviews
Rating 3.72 out of 5 212 reviews
Carey High school was a great experience. Everyones very friendly and it feels as if we are all one big family! The sports games are exciting to watch but certain sports get treated better than others. Football and Lacrosse gets most of the money leaving softball with not much. The softball fields are always a mess and never properly cared for. Softball has old jerseys while the boys teams are always getting new and expensive jerseys and merchandise. Its just sad to see one sport get treated better than the others.
Carey is a very large school housing student's from grade 7 to grade 12. While the school is very large, administration does a wonderful job making sure every student is safe, learning effectively, has the opportunity to play in all kinds of sports ranging from junior varsity for the 7th and 8th graders and varsity for the 9th through 12th graders. There are a wide range of clubs and activities for the student's to join. The staff is friendly, always there to answer questions the parents may have or provide extra help to the student's if they need it. My daughter who will be attending college in the fall had to have a spinal fusion surgery in 2022. The guidance department went out of there way to get her home instruction while she was recovering and has always been there to help my daughter in any way possible. The only thing I can recommend is that the college process was not very informative from the school. I have felt lost and confused many times as to what to do.
I love my school and my teachers are awesome. Especially my art teachers!
The only change I can think of is the bathrooms for ALL genders/trans kids needs, to be more options besides one single bathroom.
