Principal’s Message

Greetings!
At Carver Middle School, we are deeply aligned with Orange County Public Schools' mission to "create enriching and diverse pathways that lead our scholars to success," always with the vision "to ensure every scholar has a promising and successful future." We believe in cultivating a vibrant learning community where every scholar is empowered to achieve profound success and experience meaningful growth. We are dedicated to fostering an environment that sparks curiosity, encourages critical thinking, and builds character, ensuring our scholars are not only academically prepared but also confident, compassionate, and ready to make a positive impact on the world around them.
This commitment to scholar success means providing a supportive and engaging educational experience, embodying OCPS values like equity, integrity, inclusion, respect, innovation, and collaboration. We focus on developing strong foundational skills, encouraging independent thought, and celebrating every step of our scholars' academic and personal journey. Through innovative teaching and a nurturing atmosphere, we empower our scholars to discover their potential and confidently pursue their goals, offering diverse pathways that cater to their unique talents and aspirations.
Beyond our classrooms, we are deeply committed to active community outreach, understanding that with the support of families and the community, we can truly lead our scholars to success. We forge strong partnerships with families, local organizations, and neighbors to enrich the educational journey and demonstrate the power of collaboration. Together, as scholars, educators, families, and community members, we are building a brighter future, one successful step and one meaningful connection at a time, guided by the shared values that strengthen our entire Orange County Public Schools community.
