Carencro Catholic School sits in the center of the city of Carencro, a small, family-oriented community on the outskirts of Lafayette, Louisiana.
We hold fast to the traditions of our faith and school family in a world that often moves too quickly for children.
A child's stay at Carencro Catholic is full of opportunity for learning and individual growth with Christ at the center of all activity.
Our students go out into the world endowed with the tools for academic success, in addition to the foundation for a fulfilling relationship with God.
As the Body of Christ is present in the chapel at the center of the Carencro Catholic School campus, so is Christ at the center of study.
Students from pre-kindergarten (3 years of age) through eighth grade encounter a unique religious curriculum following the teachings reflected in the Catechism of the Roman Catholic Church.
