GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

During the three years of high school at Carver it has been the wildest ride of my life, I've met so many good people and teachers that are willing to support me throughout my years and hopefully through my senior year.

My experience with Carver Steam high school has been great except for the fact that people from Carver Early college makes our school look bad with smoking weed and fighting. In reality we are seperate schools and Carver steam cares about the students. I work with the superintendent Dr. Battle of APs and we are working on fixing that problem.

It is a 1:16 ratio of one teacher teaching about on average sixteen students. We had five periods every day and out of them five periods we had one period in the middle of the day which was are fourth period known as the den period where we read and study assignments given to us by other teachers.

Students are disrespectful, not disciplined by their parents and don’t care. As much as the teachers try, students do not care for their education.
