The teachers are nice and understanding. They really care about your learning and improving as a student and they want you to succeed. The counselors are always helpful and very resourceful! The staff as a whole are nice. The lunch, I believe, is about average. Most of the meals are enjoyable. There is a wide range of clubs and sports at this school. The academics are difficult for sure, but the teachers are always there to help and push you to do better. Overall this school is great, especially if you are interested in a STEM career. There are many opportunities to be involved in anything STEM at this school.
Carver is a very interactive school, the staff is very inviting. The school l may look small but it's big enough that you won't know everyone personally but you'll see them around. You won't ever feel excluded!
At this school, I've made special connections with students AND teachers. The staff give students of all different religions, sexual orientations, and ethnic groups a chance to be heard in one way or another. They engage with their students and have many different clubs and sports teams which are all in high rankings within the district. Carver has been the first school within the district to implement a dance team in their athletic teams. Along with being good athletically, we've been the blue ribbon school of excellence and are ranked as one of the best schools in Philadelphia.
