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.

My time at Carver High School has been excellent overall. The best part of my experience was participating in those fun events and going to sports games. Although my worst experience wasn't terrible, it involved losing some privileges due to the poor actions of my peers. However, I would like to see my school more involved in helping my community.

Carver High School gave me an okay experience but it could've been better. Sports definitely got more praise than academics and other extra curricular activities were last to football and basketball.
