Ouachita Parish History Tidbits

Front Cover of Morris Henry Carroll’s Funeral Program

This came in the other day and I was struck by how well this captures this great educator’s persona. Mr. Carroll, of course, was the principal of Monroe Colored High and Carroll High School, which was named for his grandfather.

    Carroll High School was named “Henry Clay Carroll High School” after Morris Henry Carroll’s grandfather. It was later changed to Morris Henry Carroll High School after Morris’ death. Carroll Jr. High was then named “Henry Clary Carroll” Jr. High.
