Father Henry Carr Catholic Secondary School is a Catholic high school administered by the Toronto Catholic District School Board in Etobicoke, Ontario, Canada.
The school was founded in 1974 by the Basilian Fathers. The school is named after Father Henry Carr, C.S.B. (1880–1963), a leader of Roman Catholic education in Canada and the founder of the University of Toronto’s University of St. Michael’s College, co-founder of the Pontifical Institute of Medieval Studies, and an advocate for religious education being included in curricular studies.
FHC serves as the home to many athletes. The school's sport coach, Peter Miller was a graduate of Cornell University, and the father of Leah Miller (The hostess of So You Think You Can Dance Canada). NFL player Kerry Carter also attended Henry Carr as well as actor Enrico Colantoni for which the school named their drama and arts theater after.
