Carmel is home to a thriving economy. Several large companies reside in Carmel, such as the centralized sales headquarters for HSBC Finance Corporation , National Headquarters for Conseco and Pearson Education (formerly MacMillan Publishing). It is also home to many mid-sized and smaller companies such as Orchard Software Corporation, Autobase Inc., Electronic Evolution, and Oxford Financial Services.
It's not surprising that the reason many families choose to live in the Carmel Clay community is because of its excellent public school system. Its students' scholastic, artistic and athletic achievements are consistently outstanding year after year. For example, on average 89% of Carmel High School Students enroll in four-year colleges. Add 4% of the class entering two-year colleges or trade schools and 2% were foreign exchange students returning to their own countries to pursue further education there, for a total of 95% of Carmel High School graduates continuing their education.
The teaching system, which serves about a 50 square mile area, includes Carmel High School, Clay Junior High, Carmel Junior High and nine elementary schools. For information about Carmel Clay public schools, call the Carmel Clay School administrative offices or visit their web site. |
