Second Step® Elementary is a research-based social-emotional learning program designed to improve children’s social-emotional skills. Students are currently engaging in discussion and activities focused on problem-solving. Children learn how to identify and state a problem, recognize if a problem is an accident, and use the STEP problem-solving process: 

S: Say the problem 

T: Think of solutions 

E: Explore the outcomes 

P: Pick a solution 

From Carver PTA: 

• Hey Carver Elementary School Parents/Guardians, our school wide fundraiser kicks off on 2/20/2023 and we would love for everyone to get involved.  Make sure to get registered online and send this out to family and friends.  You can Register with our school I.D. #22005 for online sales and also use the order form in the packet to sell in-person.  Student's Registration - School ID (candymaninc.org)

• Please consider signing up for cafeteria lunch coverage so that our teachers can have a duty-free lunch. Here is the new signup link: (singnupgenius.com)

Reminders:

• We need your cooperation and support to have a safe and orderly arrival and dismissal. I am asking that all parents utilizing carpool, adhere to the established routines and procedures. So that unnecessary delays do not occur during afternoon dismissal, you may be asked to park in a designated area to have your student walked to your vehicle by a staff member. 

• Parents/Visitors must go to the main office when arriving on campus. Only parents/visitors wearing a nametag should enter areas where instruction is happening. A nametag is given in the main office after checking in with the receptionist. Please be mindful that we will do our best to provide uninterrupted instruction. Parents/Visitors should not enter classrooms during the instructional day unless this has been previously arranged. We appreciate your support. 

Let’s make it a “Breakthrough” year! If you have questions or need support, please do not hesitate to contact me or Mrs. Crouse, Assistant Principal by calling the school or sending an email: wcmerritt@wcpss.net, acrouse@wcpss.net.
