Background

The school sits on 40 acres of land intended to meet the needs of the growing population in west kendall. The campus has a "college" atmosphere and meets the needs of the 21st-century learning and beyond. The school is named after Archbishop Coleman Francis Carroll, the first Bishop of Miami. As of 2008, the school has been administered by the Carmelite Sisters of the Most Sacred Heart of Los Angeles.

Primum Regnum Dei is the motto of the school: Seek First the Kingdom of God.

For students who need the extra academic challenge: The school provides Primum Regnum Dei Scholars Track as well as Academies for Law and Liberal Studies in which students can earn up to 30 college units and graduate as college Freshmen. Because of the school's campus, More academies are planned to be incorporated as the needs of students arise.

Programs in Sports Medicine, Business, Fine Arts, Broadcasting, Theater and Music are also included to meet the various needs and gifts of students.

In 2011, the One-to-One iPad program as well as integration of technology into the classroom helps students meet the needs of ongoing technology application.
