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.

I loved attending Carver Early College and I would definitely recommend the school to others. The only changes needed are more snack options for students (Vending machines, Candy Sellers...etc)

Carver may be a small, school, but it makes up for that in the number of opportunities it offers to students. I enrolled in this school my sophomore year, and I was new to the American school system. Carver's faculty did a great job of exposing me to AP, dual enrollment, work-based learning, robotics, JROTC, stem learning opportunities, as well as many other extracurriculars that have put me on the right track to excel in college.

I took my son out of woodward Academy and rolled thought I was rolling the dice sending him to Carver Early College. What I found was a great learning enviornment, caring but not enabling teachers, and a dynamic principal. The GSU partnership is awesome at other schools he'd have to take all AP clas...
