Located in Axton, VA, Carlisle School sets the standard in our region for excellence in education. We provide a challenging curriculum in a nurturing learning environment where children will grow academically and socially. Our small class sizes give teachers the ability to focus on individual students. Each student’s uniqueness is recognized and fostered, helping to grow their self-esteem so they can reach their true potential in the classroom, stage, or athletic arena.
“The communications that come out always keep me in the loop and the teachers are absolutely AMAZING with ensuring Cameron is on the path to success. At Carlisle, Cameron has been able to flourish with small class sizes, a nurturing staff that is genuinely connected to each and every student, and the rigorous academics. We are proud to be part of the Carlisle family!”

We support Carlisle because this is the type of educational environment that fosters our son’s love of learning. Carlisle is a very special place where we feel safe and secure knowing that the teachers love and care for our child the way we do. It has enhanced our son’s life in so many ways, and we wouldn’t have him anywhere else.
