G.W. Carver Elementary School

Our Carver Eagles have had an excellent first day. They've been learning about their classmates, teachers, and having fun! We can't wait to see what day two brings❤️ 🦅

Good morning, Carver families! If your child rides Bus 389, please know that it is running about 30 minutes behind due to mechanical issues. Thank you for your patience!

Please review our afternoon dismissal procedures. Remember that students cannot be checked out through the front office after 2:45 pm. In case of an emergency transportation change, please contact the school before 2:00 pm (this includes sending messages to teachers on the ECPS app requesting a transportation change as teachers may not have access to check their messages after 2:00 pm). This time is needed to record the transportation form, which will be shared with your child’s teacher by 2:45 pm. Please be patient as we streamline our dismissal routines.

Please review G.W. Carver's arrival procedures. Students may enter the building beginning at 7:30 am. All car riders, walkers, and visitors must enter through the front door and the EVOLV machine. Bus riders will enter near the bus lot using other safety protocols. We can't wait to see all of our Eagles on Monday morning!

Please help us in congratulating ECPS's Teacher of the Year, Mrs. Tamika Farmer. We are so proud of you, Mrs. Farmer.

Join us for Open House on Thursday, August 22, from 4:00 to 7:00 pm.

We look forward to seeing our Pre-K families for Pre-K orientation and Kindergarten families later today from 5:30 -6:30 pm.

Due to the Active Shooter Drill at Coker-Wimberly and North Edgecombe, G.W. Carver's front office will be closed to the public from 8:30 am to 1:00 pm. Thank you for your understanding and patience.

Under the guidance of ECC instructor Kevin Strickland, construction students at SouthWest Edgecombe High School are adding the final touches on their “dogdominium.” They're gearing up to showcase their incredible work at next week's North Carolina SkillsUSA competition in Greensboro, NC! This student competition celebrates leadership and practical skills in trades.

This week, 6th grade students visited Medoc Mountain State Park where they were able to go on a hike, explore their surroundings, and engage in outdoor activities as they summarized their reading of the novel "Hatchet". Thank you to Friends of State Parks for their support in funding this trip! #LearnOutdoors #WildcatsRead #WildcatsAchieve
