Device Distribution for Students
Last Friday, we sent out a survey asking parents/guardians to identify if their student needs a device to be able to do work at home during the school closure. We will be distributing devices to those students who identified that they need a device on Thursday, March 26th. Please read the letter linked below that outlines the distribution procedures.
If you have not notified us that you need a device but do, please gives us a call at 508-866-6160 or send an email to kniefs@carver.org.
Home Technology Access Survey & Updates
At this time, the Carver Public Schools are still scheduled to be closed through Monday, April 6th with all students returning to school on Tuesday, April 7th.
In the event the Governor decides to extend the closure, we are making plans to develop a more formalized online learning program. As part of that planning, we are attempting to determine what students do not have access to the internet or a device/computer to do work at home. If your student does not have access to either the internet or a device/computer at home, please complete the survey linked below. If you know someone who does not have access please have them contact us, or you can contact us at (508) 866-6160.
