Carroll Senior High School (commonly known as Southlake Carroll) is a public secondary school in Southlake, Texas, serving students in grades 11 - 12. The school is part of the Carroll Independent School District, serving the majority of the city of Southlake, Texas and portions of northwest Grapevine, far northern Colleyville and eastern Westlake. The building is located at 1501 W. Southlake Blvd at the intersection of S. Peytonville Avenue and Southlake Blvd.
History
Carroll Senior High School was founded in 1919 as Carroll School, better known at the time as Carroll Hill School, and served students in grades 1-9. In 1959, Carroll became an Independent School District. In 1965, Carroll ISD was fully accredited for primary and secondary education. The original Carroll High School opened in 1970. In 1992, a new campus was opened and served grades 9-12 until the year 2000, when 9th grade was moved to Carroll Junior High School (now Carroll High School) to accommodate growth. In 2002 the school became a true “split campus” when Carroll Junior High School became Carroll High School, serving freshmen and sophomores, and Carroll High School became Carroll Senior High School, serving juniors and seniors.
Athletics
The Carroll Dragons have won 20 state titles since 1975, including titles in American football, wrestling, golf, cross country, swimming, baseball, soccer, basketball, diving, track and field, hockey, marching band, and lacrosse. Carroll won the UIL Lone Star Cup in the 2000–01 and 2001–02 school years as a 4A school and in the 2011–12, 2012–13 and 2013–14 school years as a 5A school.[2]

The 2018 Dragons beat San Antonio Reagan at Dell Diamond by a score of 7-2 on June 9, 2018, led by Coach Larry Vucan, to win the UIL Class 6A State Championship. Carroll had 2 astonishing managers who didn't get most of the credit for the team's success. Hunter Herrin & Michael Spagnoli both contributed everyday in unprecedented ways and will never be forgotten for their hard work. The dragons first State Championship since 2002 and finished 35-6 to end the season. Carroll finished with a perfect record of 11-0 during the playoffs in 2018. Dragon baseball has won 3 state titles in 1982, 2002, and 2018.

As of 2017, The Dragons have an all-time record of 427–135–8. Head Coach Bob Ledbetter led the Dragons to statewide prominence with three 3A state titles in 1988, 1992 and 1993. His successor, Tom Rapp, compiled a 29–17–1 record as Carroll head coach from 1996–99 without a state finals appearance.[citation needed]
In 2000, the former University of Texas at Austin quarterback Todd Dodge replaced Rapp as head coach. In seven seasons, Dodge led the Dragons to a 98–11 record (including a 79–1 record and four state championships in the school's first five years as a Class 5A program), before leaving Carroll for the University of North Texas in 2007. His successor is Hal Wasson,[3] former head coach at Fossil Ridge High School (Fort Worth, Texas).[4] Carroll was recognized as United States High School Football National Champion in 2004, 2005 and 2006.[5]
