About Us
Welcome to Carleton College
Since its founding more than two years ago, Carleton College has been preparing high school students with an education for a lifetime.
Our Mission
Our diverse, collaborative, and conceptual approach to learning, promotes the international mindedness, content knowledge, and skills of our learners who extend their learning beyond the written curriculum. The campus provides our learners with plenty of opportunities for inquiry, giving them the space for growth.
Our Vision
Carleton College aims to provide learners with a solid foundation upon which they can build their future. As confident, caring, open-minded, and knowledgeable members of the community, Carleton graduates will excel in all fields, adding their own spark of innovation, inspiration and imagination to their thriving communities. Our learners will go on to develop, build and help their community, with values embedded in them including gender equity, individual recognition, self- reflection, social awareness, civic responsibility, knowledge, and personal growth.
Our Approach
Our approach to the structure of each day is based on key concepts rather than time. In a traditional school the day is divided into minutes by subject with little if any connection. At our school connections are at the heart of each day – the more, the better.
School History
Carleton College offers a rigorous education grounded in shared values – respect, love of learning, integrity, courage and a commitment to pluralism. Students become lifelong learners who make lasting contributions to the world. Our three campuses unite approximately 1,375 students served by 350 faculty and staff, creating a diverse and inclusive community.
We guide students to become thoughtful, disciplined, well-rounded individuals by providing a multifaceted education that includes a focus on character, ethics, skills as well as content.

We place a strong emphasis on extracurricular activities and community service during school, providing students with opportunities to develop leadership skills and give back to their communities.
