Last week we asked students and parents to completed a survey on their experiences with remote learning so far.  Linked below is a letter and set of graphs from the superintendent that gives an overview of the survey results.

Also linked is a sample student schedule for parents to follow and a couple of checklist organizers he provided that you may be able to use to better organize your students day.

In addition,  Mr. Knief also wanted to let the community know that Governor Baker signed a proclamation declaring Friday May 1st as “School Lunch Hero Day”.  He would like to thank and acknowledge our cafeteria workers who have been providing lunches for students on a daily basis. They are truly heroes.  Lunches are served from 11:30-12:30 at the Elementary School if you wanted to drive by to say thank you.

Linked below is the Carver Public Schools Remote Learning Plan that will go into effect as of Monday, April 6, 2020 as well as a letter from the Commissioner of the Massachusetts Department of Education (DESE) Jeff Riley outlining the Commissioner’s guidance to school districts during our current school closure.

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.

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.
