French Week at CMHS 3/7-11

French Week Overview by Carly Cretinon

On Monday March 7th through March 11, the Spanish and French National Honor Society (SFNHS) will be hosting a French Week at Carver Middle High School (CMHS) in order for students to get involved in French culture.

Mrs. Calvo previously stated that one of the missions of the SFNHS is to promote culture. Language classes are not just one additional subject that you take and that is it. It is not only about learning the language, it is also about the culture. Since many Middle School students will have their first year of a language next year, Mrs. Calvo wants them to know that French is not only a language or subject. There is an amazing culture that goes along with it too, as there are 40 countries where French is spoken as an official language. French Week will be a fun and engaging way for students to get excited about taking a language next year.

The SFNHS, with the support of the Allied Arts Department and Administration, has been planning French Week for quite some time now.   They will all be contributing to the expected success of Carver’s first “French Week”.

Every morning of French Week, members of the SFNHS will commence the giveaways for students. The cafeteria has planned a French menu; French-speaking music will be played before classes start and students can enjoy cartoons and movies in French during lunch.  On the last day, the Culinary Arts students will bake “madeleines” for every student.   Also, members of SFNHS will be in school at the parent-teacher conferences to welcome parents, invite them to take pictures w/ props, and receive some gift bags as well.

You may remember Hispanic Week back in the first Semester.  We are all expecting the same fun and success with French Week.

We strongly encourage parents/guardians to make appointments with one or all of the individual student’s teachers, the
student’s guidance counselor, and/or the assistant principal or principal. This is a good opportunity to strengthen the
partnership between home and school. You may simply want to connect with your student’s teacher to gain insight into
the school day. You may want to address a concern or want to celebrate an achievement in a particular subject area.
Please take advantage of this time to have some quiet conversation with our faculty and staff.

As always, please don’t hesitate to call if you have any questions or are having any trouble scheduling online.

Updated Guidance – Masks on School Buses Optional

On Friday, February 25, 2022, the CDC announced that it is no longer required that masks be worn on school buses.  In response, DESE has updated their guidance and is also no longer requiring that masks be worn on the bus.

The Carver Public Schools is adopting the updated CDC and DESE guidance and effective this afternoon, it will be a student’s choice if they want to wear a mask on the bus.  As in school, any individual who wishes to continue to mask will be supported in that choice.

New Mask Protocols and Upcoming Events

On February 9, 2022, Governor Baker and the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) Commissioner Jeff Riley, announced that the statewide mask mandate will be lifted as of February 28, 2022.  On February 14, 2022 the Carver School Committee voted to make wearing a mask during the school day and at Carver Public School events optional for staff, students, and families once the mask mandate has been lifted as of February 28, 2022.

The wearing of masks are still required on school buses and in the nurses’ offices per federal and state guidelines.  The School Committee also voted to require masks for individuals who test positive for COVID-19 who are returning to school after 5 days of isolation as outlined in the “Protocols for Responding to COVID-19 Scenarios”, which I have attached for your review.

Carver Public Schools: Protocols for Responding to COVID-19 Scenarios – updated 2-15-2022

As a reminder, the district is providing students who opt-in with at-home rapid antigen COVID-19 tests on a weekly basis through April 22, 2022.  Participation in the program is voluntary, though we do encourage families to participate.  It is not too late to opt-in.  If you have not already signed-up to receive a weekly at-home test, but would like to participate in the program please complete the following form: https://forms.gle/GFLxCfemmWQv8WSj6
