9-12 Grade Presentation – Cliff Crosby
Thursday October 9th at 8:30a grades 9-12 will attend a presentation with Cliff Crosby.
Cliff describes himself as a “modest former NFL player and Super Bowl Champion who has a fascinating behind the scenes story of how hard choices, faith and hard work helped him avoid the pitfalls of growing up in family circumstances that would defeat most children”.
Cliff will share his story of how growing up in a family with addiction issues impacted his choices and desire for success.
Our high school Adjustment Counselor and Department Chair, Kimberley Duane has been working with the Caron Treatment Center and the “Youth Health Connection” out of South Shore Hospital to develop programs and supports within our school for students struggling with addiction in some form.
The Caron Treatment Center has recommended Cliff’s presentation and has organized for him to come and speak at four South Shore High Schools and we are looking forward to his presentation.

Ice Bucket Challenge UPDATE & PICTURES
First and foremost, we want to express our most sincere gratitude to:
- You, the parents and guardians for your support and generosity!
- the Carver Fire Department for their assistance in filling 450 buckets with water – it was quite a task!
- The Home Depot in Plymouth who let us use 450 of their signature orange buckets!
- … and all of the families who lent us buckets and ice!
With your help – the students of Carver Middle High School raised over $2,000 for the ALS Foundation and roughly 450 students and faculty members doused themselves with the icy waters! We passed the challenge along to Middleboro High School in the hopes that they too will accept this challenge for such a great cause and we will continue to see this spread across the district! Our students not only contributed to a great cause but also started the year off with a great sense of charity, community and school spirit!
Many thanks to Sharon Asam for sharing these great pictures with us! The video of the event will be posted soon – For now, check out these great stills!
