After being incorporated in fall 1903 as Carlisle Military Academy, it secured a charter from the State of Texas that declaring it to be "for the literary, military, and manual training of boys". However, the charter also expressly allowed Carlisle to enroll "a limited number of girls". The dormitory promised by Arlingtonians was known officially as Arlington Hall but commonly as the South Barracks. It housed 30 students, a dining hall, and the superintendent's residence on a site where UTA's Preston Hall would later be built. Carlisle himself served as the school's superintendent, while his wife Julia, his daughter Mary, and Rev. W. B. Fitzhugh served as its three directors. Both Julia and Mary Carlisle also taught classes. The school maintained at least four full-time teachers on staff throughout its history, although most individual teachers left the school after only a year or two on staff. 287: 385: 193: 19: 479: 405: 337: 545: 513:, from 1909 to 1913, where he earned a reputation as a capable administrator. He left Missouri for Arlington in 1913. Taylor's son-in-law, J. J. Godbey, had served as the headmaster of Carlisle Military Academy from 1911 to 1913, and he helped convince Taylor to move to Arlington and start a new military academy in the town. After arriving in Texas, Taylor reached an agreement with Carlisle Military Academy's property owners in which he promised to improve and insure the campus's buildings, organize an advertising campaign, and employ a competent staff in exchange for being allowed to keep any profits generated and having the opportunity to purchase the school and its land outright for $ 18,000. 360:. In the spring of 1904, the school had 97 students, and in spring 1905, it had 150. The school graduated two students at its first commencement ceremony in May 1904, its lowest-ever number of graduates. Its highest number of graduates was 11, in 1909. In September 1905, due in part to the school's struggles to handle increases in enrollment, it stopped accepting female students and reduced its advertising. As a result, two former teachers, Mary Carlisle and Maggie Smith, established a separate Carlisle-Smith School for Girls in 1904. This school taught girls in first through tenth grades in Arlington, although it only lasted for two years. 393:

The football program was suspended in 1908 after the parents of four starting players removed their sons from the team for fear of injury, leaving the squad with too few players to contest games. Furthermore, the football and baseball coach was, along with six students, arrested for fighting in January 1909. The school also had a cadet band, which was directed by Captain H. E. Alden, who had previously conducted military and civil bands in

After operating for two more years, in August 1913 Carlisle Military Academy was ordered by the court to sell its property to satisfy its obligations with the bank and its lienholders. At this point, the school's debt to its mortgage holders was in excess of $ 20,000. When bank officer Thomas Spruance purchased its land for $ 15,610 in a public sale, the school was ordered to pay off as much of the deficit as possible by selling its other property. The court also ordered the school to pay its other debts as well as

At the secondary level, the school offered a comprehensive curriculum with courses in mathematics, history, the sciences, English, and foreign languages, as well as vocational subjects such as agriculture, bookkeeping, and business law. Band and physical education were also offered. In 1913–14, board and tuition for students under 14 was $ 250, and for students over 14 it was $ 300. Children of ministers received a 15% discount on tuition. 445:. During receivership, General R. H. Beckham, who was appointed the receiver by the county's district court, settled suits with the school's creditors after Carlisle was unable to meet his obligations to them. Beckham also managed the school's affairs, ensured all its buildings had fire insurance, compiled lists of all its property and liabilities, and continued to employ teachers and staff while, so long as possible, paying them with cash on hand. 1875: 1780: 1746: 1531: 1497: 1423: 1389: 1340: 1265: 1101: 1058: 955: 586:
