Carver Announcements for Sept 10, 2018


Hello Carver Families!

This email is intended to keep parents updated on reminders, upcoming activities, and announcements during the school year. Be sure to check Carver's webpage for updated daily announcements.

1.        Carver PTSA will host the first meeting this school year at Carver in the library on Thursday, Sept 13, from 4 pm – 5 pm. All parents/guardians are invited to attend. If you would like to participate in Superintendent’s Open Parent Forum, please let PTSA or the office know. If you need more information about Carver PTSA, please contact PTSA via email at CarverPTSA@outlook.com or on facebook at Carver PTSA. We hope to see you at the PTSA meeting!

2.        PTSA has Carver spirit shirts on sale for $5 and Carver spirit water bottles for $2. You can purchase the items at the PTSA meeting on Thursday at 4 pm or by contacting PTSA via email at CarverPTSA@outlook.com or on facebook at Carver PTSA.

3.        Mid-quarter ends on 9/14/18! Please check your student’s grades online this week on home access and talk with your student about each grade before mid-quarter ends Friday! An alert now phone call will be coming home after mid-quarter reports for each student with all A’s and/or all B’s and each student with a D or F at mid-quarter. Please take this time to talk with your child about their grades before mid-quarter ends and before the alert now phone call. To check grades online prior to mid-quarter, please follow these steps:
·       Home Access Center website: https://homeaccess.sps.org/homeaccess
·       Log-in: Enter User Name and Password
o   If you have not previously logged on, you will be asked to create two questions with answers in case you forget your password in the future.
o   If you need your log-in and password, please come in or call the office.
·       Click on Classes for assignments and overall scores in each class.  

4.        Student spectators attending home or away games without a guardian present during games must be picked up or have pick-up rides in the stands by 8:00 pm for each home and away event. Students attending the game as a spectator should make clear arrangements to have a ride at the designated pick-up time PRIOR to attending the game. Students picked up later than the expected pick-up time or with no pick-up ride in the stands by 8 pm could forfeit the privilege of attending future athletic activities as a spectator. If the game is not over at the 8 pm pick-up time, the driver/pick-up ride can enter the game for FREE for the remainder of the game to sit with the student in the stands.

5.        Check out this flyer for information to participate in SPARC Game Days before home games.

6.        Utility work will begin near the cell tower located in Carver’s bus lot to replace transmission lines for fiber optics in mid-September. The work is expected to take several days and should not impede traffic in the Carver car or bus lanes. Prior to beginning the work to replace the lines, guard structures and netting will be installed to ensure safety during the work.

7.        Need after school care for your student or just want to avoid the afternoon carline? Sign up for Y-teens after school care at 862-7456 or at the Ward or Jones YMCA buildings. Y-teens is available from 2:45 pm – 6:30 pm each school day.

8.        Flu clinic is coming to Carver on November 7. Please contact Nurse Nancy Sadler, at 523-6830, for more information.
