• Dear Parents or Guardians,

    On behalf of the staff at Carver STEM Academy, I am happy to welcome you to the 2024-2025 school year! We look forward to a productive partnership with you to ensure our children achieve their highest potential. We recognize that to be successful in school, our children need support from both the home and school. We know a strong partnership with you will make a great difference in your child's education. As partners, we share the responsibility for our children's success and want you to know that we will do our very best to carry out our responsibilities. We ask that you guide and support your child's learning by ensuring he/she:

    1. Attends school daily and arrives on time, ready for the day's learning experience to be eligible for monthly Perfect Attendance incentives
    2. Completes all homework assignments given by teachers
    3. Logs daily reading to develop a love for reading and to improve literacy skills
    4. Shares school experiences with you so that you are aware of his/her school life
    5. Informs you if he/she needs additional support in any area or subject
    6. Knows that you expect him/her to succeed in school and go on to college or higher learning

    Please consider joining our school volunteer program as our students can greatly benefit from your involvement and contributions to the school's program and its operations. We are seeking volunteers to help us with the following activities:

    1. Teacher-led instructional support, usually in the classroom
    2. Reading with children who need extra help
    3. School-wide events
    4. Student recognition events
    5. Outreach and recruitment of parent and community volunteers
    6. Lunchroom and recess support
