Senior Certifications

We are excited to share that throughout the month of January, we will be training all senior students to become certified in CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation), AED (Automated External Defibrillator) use, basic First Aid and Narcan.

This certification program is part of our ongoing commitment to equipping students with essential life-saving skills that can make a critical difference in emergency situations. The training will be conducted by certified instructors and will include both hands-on practice and classroom instruction, ensuring students gain the confidence and competence to respond effectively in real-life scenarios.

We are also thrilled to highlight our partnerships with Carver Cares, Carver EMS, and our Health and Wellness Pathway. These collaborations, along with our internship program, provide students with unique opportunities to connect classroom learning to real-world experiences. By working alongside dedicated professionals and community organizations, our seniors will not only gain certification but also deepen their understanding of health, safety, and service.

This valuable credential not only enhances their personal preparedness but also strengthens their resumes and college or job applications. We are excited about the impact these partnerships will have in preparing students to be confident, compassionate, and career-ready leaders in both their communities and future endeavors.

Upon successful completion of the course, students will receive official certification, which is valid for two years and recognized nationwide.

Middle School Drama Presents: Shrek the Musical

November 7-8, 2025  |  7 p.m.
Carver Middle High School Auditorium
$10 general admission  | $5 students/seniors

Beauty is in the eye of the ogre in Shrek The Musical KIDS, based on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animation film and fantastic Broadway musical. It’s a “big bright beautiful world” as everyone’s favorite ogre, Shrek, leads a cast of fairytale misfits on an adventure to rescue a princess and find true acceptance.  Part romance and part twisted fairy tale, Shrek KIDS is an irreverently fun show with a powerful message for the whole family.

 

 

Middle School Diversity Awareness

On the early release day on October 23, 2025 Grade 6 students were invited to take a walk in someone else’s shoes as they rotated through various classroom spaces for the morning.  Students in sessions hosted by special education teachers and counselors learned what it was like to live with disabilities ranging from blindness, deaf and hard of hearing and physical impairments to dyslexia, autism and ADHD. We believe increasing awareness through these experiences help to make our school environment a more inclusive space for all students.

Halloween Fun!

Many thanks to the staff and volunteers who helped to make our Halloween Friday such a fun time!  Halloween colors were on display at the elementary school complete with a pumpkin parade and teachers at CMHS got into the Halloween spirit with their costumes.  Later that day Grades 6-8 had a great time at their Halloween Social and the Annual PTO Trunk or Treat was a huge success!  Here’s to many more great days at Carver Schools!

Congratulations to Crusader Athletes of the Week:
