Independent & Secular Schools in Carmel & Westfield
8 independent & secular schools in Carmel & Westfield; 3 are on the 2026-27 Choice list. Southwest Hamilton County: classical and Latin schools, a Montessori cluster and Catholic parish schools in the Diocese of Lafayette.
Where this comes from. School facts are from the NCES Private School Survey (2023-24, or 2021-22 where a school did not respond) and, for schools missing from it, from state lists. Choice status is IDOE's 2026-27 participating list as downloaded October 28, 2026; SGO status is IDOE's partner list dated October 21, 2026; ESA status is IDOE's August 31, 2026 provider sheet. Indiana does not publish private tuition; confirm it with the school.
Funding note: Independent schools that charge more than the voucher typically fill the gap with need-based aid; a few large ones partner with SGOs instead of joining Choice.
