CARVER ACADEMY

Carver Academy is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Milwaukee School District school district, located in Milwaukee, WI with about 415 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 18 teachers, Carver Academy has a student/teacher ratio of about 23:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Carver Academy, located at 1900 N 1st St in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is a K-8 school operating within the Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS) district. Situated in the Harambee neighborhood, the school is dedicated to fostering a supportive learning environment that emphasizes academic growth, character development, and community engagement. By providing instruction from kindergarten through eighth grade, Carver Academy aims to build a strong educational foundation that prepares its students for the transition to high school and beyond.

As part of the larger MPS system, the school leverages district resources to offer a curriculum aligned with state standards, often integrating enrichment programs designed to address the diverse needs of its student body. Carver Academy places a significant focus on cultivating a positive school culture where students are encouraged to reach their full potential.
