Carver’s mission is to equip all learners for global competitiveness by leading strategic partnerships with schools and communities that advance excellence and growth opportunities. The Carver currently has 2,889 K-12 students in 60+ before & after and summer programs. In addition to the Carver Community Center, Carver serves K-12 students in all Norwalk Public Schools, Norwalk’s Side By Side Charter School, Bridgeport’s Classical Studies Magnet Academy, three Bridgeport elementary schools, Naugatuck High School, and Stamford High School. Our students also experience adventures at The Ecology School in Maine each summer. Since 2005, 100% of Carver seniors have graduated on time, and almost all have become first-generation college students. Programming includes K-12 workforce development, college tours, and college scholarships. Students receive tutoring and a multi-tiered System of Support. We emphasize literacy and project-based, hands-on STEAM enrichment education for all students.
