In his first two years of high school, Carr played for St. Michael's College School in Toronto. As a freshman, he led his team to the quarterfinals of the Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations (OFSAA) tournament. Carr scored as many as 49 points in a single game.[1] In 2015, he won the Ontario All-Catholic Classic and was named most valuable player (MVP) after scoring 16 points in the final.[2] As a sophomore, Carr averaged 16 points, four rebounds and five assists per game. He lost only one game in the season, to Roman Catholic High School, and won the OFSAA title.[3]

Before his junior year, Carr transferred to Montverde Academy, a school in Montverde, Florida with a renowned basketball program. He was drawn to Montverde because his grandmother lived in Orlando, Florida. However, Carr missed his entire junior season with a torn ACL.[3] As a senior, he averaged 9.1 points, 3.5 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game, playing on the same team as the top recruit in the 2018 class, RJ Barrett. His team, which was ranked among the best in the country, achieved a 26–5 record and a runners-up finish at High School Nationals.[4] At the end of the season, he played in the BioSteel All-Canadian Game. Carr was a three-star recruit and chose to play for Pittsburgh over offers from Cincinnati, Houston and Virginia Tech, among others.[5] He was considered a three-star recruit and was ranked the 146th best prospect in his class.[6]

After the season, Carr declared for the 2020 NBA draft but did not sign with an agent.[13] On August 1, he announced that he would withdraw from the draft and return to Minnesota for his junior season.[14]

Following the season, he transferred to Texas.[17] Carr was named third-team All-Big 12 as a senior.[18] He returned for his final season of eligibility and surpassed the 2,000 point mark early in the season.[19]
