Carver Middle School -

We had a visit today from Spartanburg High School graduate and current student athlete at Hampton University, Peyton Jones! He stopped by on his bye week to inspire and equip some our leaders and student athletes! These young men enjoyed hearing about his current experience at Hampton and what it took to get there. #OurStory #OurVoice #OurExcellence

A great Saturday morning on the wrestling mat! Viking Youth Wrestling and Coach Gaylord held an awesome clinic at Carver. We're looking forward to a great season for all of Viking Wrestling. Thanks to Coach Sowell and Coach Heard for supporting the youth this morning as well. Viking Youth Wrestling (1st - 6th Grade) holds practices on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6pm to 7:30pm at the Spartanburg High School Wrestling Room.

Wrestling season is back! Great first couple days of practice! Let's work! #OurStory #OurVoice #OurExcellence

Our Career Clusters class attended BMW's Manufacturing Career Day! They were able to tour the training facility and hear from employees in the BMW Scholars training program that are just a few years older than them. They learnt about robotics, coding, maintenance and machining and all the careers in those right at BMW. They also learned from many of the manufacturing facilities that supply BMW parts like LEAR and Cooper Standard. Overall they learned that the manufacturing sector is SC is growing and many of these facilities want them to be skilled and educated and to start their career with them. Of course they loved getting to see and sit in the driver's seat of a prototype vehicle potentially to be released later by BMW. #OurStory #OurVoice #OurExcellence

Hispanic Heritage Month has come to a close, but we had so much fun learning about all the different Spanish-speaking cultures in our school. We celebrated the heritage of our students during our pep rally, decorated our doors, and had segments on the Morning News made by our MLL students. Carver takes pride in the rich diversity of cultures of all of our students!
