The school was also intended to serve as a minor seminary, which would attract Liberians to the Catholic priesthood. was chosen as the location after a meeting between Bishop Francis Carroll, the Brother Superior of the Christian Brothers, and the management of the Liberian American and Swedish Mining Company (LAMCO). Grassfield had served as the first operational site of LAMCO, when the company began mining operations in Liberia. Now that they were moving to Yekepa, they decided to lease their facilities at Grassfield to the Christian Brothers. The history of Carroll High School can be divided into four periods: The Grassfield Days, The Yekepa Days, The War School and the Post-War Carroll High. The Grassfield Days cover 1969-1979, the Yekepa Days 1980-1990, and War School covers 1991- 1997. The post war Carroll High period began after the national elections in Liberia in 1997 and covers through to the present day. (en)
