Carver High School has implemented a Guidance Advisory Program for all of our students: freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors.  The Guidance Advisory Program is an extension of the school Guidance and Counseling Department

Students attend regularly scheduled "advisory" periods, each Tuesday, and the advisory is led by teacher/advisors and supported by counselors.  We have discovered that small groups foster a sense of family, collaboration, connection and caring among students and staff.  Through these groups, students receive personalized guidance and support in study skills, life skills, and career education.

Most young people must feel connected to significant adults and a positive peer group to have the support to be an accomplished student. The guidance advisory program is used to create that connection.

A variety of lessons are developed from different sources that address subjects such as character education, post-secondary options, and personal, social, and academic development.  Click here to see our advisory outline.

Course Recovery is a computer-based educational software system that allows students to work at their own pace to recover credits and grades. Students may take course recovery classes to make up entire courses or a semester of a course for which proficiency was not met.

On-line Learning (or e-Learning) is giving students the ability to “get back on track” to graduate by earning course credit outside the normal school day via Internet connection.  Students wishing to take an e-learning course must have the approval of his/her guidance counselor. 

The approval to take an eLearning courses and course recovery is determined by the our Graduation Coach, Guidance Counselor, and E-learning/Course Recovery Teacher.
