Panther Pounce
August 5, 2026
Carver Early College Families,
Happy Monday, Panther Family!
As we begin another week at Carver Early College, we remain focused on cultivating champions through a culture of J.O.Y.—Just Own Your Greatness! Every day presents another opportunity for our scholars to demonstrate excellence, take ownership of their learning, and represent the EC Way.
📊 PROGRESS REPORTS ARE AVAILABLE
Progress reports are now available in Infinite Campus!
Families, please log into Infinite Campus to review your scholar’s current academic progress. This is an important opportunity to celebrate successes and identify any areas that may need immediate attention.
Please review grades, missing assignments, and overall academic progress with your scholar. If you have questions or concerns regarding a grade, we encourage you to communicate directly with your scholar’s teacher.
Let’s work together now to ensure every Panther finishes the grading period strong!
📚 ACADEMICS: EXCELLENCE IS THE EXPECTATION
We are moving deeper into the semester, and every assignment, assessment, and instructional day matters. Families, please continue encouraging scholars to complete assignments, seek assistance when needed, and give their very best effort each day.
Our goal is not simply for scholars to pass—we are preparing them to graduate ready for college, career, and life.
⏰ ATTENDANCE MATTERS
Being present is one of the most important steps toward academic success. Our goal is for every scholar to maintain 90% or higher attendance.
Please help us by ensuring scholars arrive on time, every day, ready to learn. Missing even a few instructional days can quickly create learning gaps.
Show up. Stay engaged. Own your greatness.
🔵 STAFF GOES BLUE — WEDNESDAY
This Wednesday, September 16, Carver Early College staff will GO BLUE in recognition of Prostate Cancer Awareness.
Our staff will continue to wear blue every Wednesday as we raise awareness and show our support.
🐾 THE EC WAY
At Carver Early College, we are building a culture where scholars are creative, compassionate, and courageous. We ask every scholar to demonstrate the EC Way in classrooms, hallways, extracurricular activities, athletic events, and throughout our community.
Our expectations remain high because we know what our scholars are capable of achieving.
❤️ FAMILY PARTNERSHIP
Families, thank you for continuing to partner with us. This week, please take a few minutes to sit down with your scholar, open Infinite Campus together, and discuss:
Progress Report • Attendance • Grades • Missing Assignments • Behavior • Goals
Ask your scholar one important question:
“What is your plan to finish this grading period stronger than you started?”
When school and home work together, our scholars win.
✨ PRINCIPAL ROGERS’ POUNCE FOR THE WEEK
Greatness is not something we wait for—it is something we choose through our actions every single day.
Panthers, this week I challenge you to own your effort, own your choices, own your future, and Just Own Your Greatness!
Let’s make it another great week at Carver Early College!
With Panther Pride,
Dr. Christina Rogers
Principal | Carver Early College
Panther Pride Starts with the Uniform! 🐾
Families may purchase Carver Early College uniforms here. All uniform orders will be delivered directly to the school, and scholars will be called when their items are ready for pickup.
When placing your order, please include your scholar’s first and last name to ensure accurate distribution.
The uniform guide highlights the various approved styles scholars may wear to school. Please remember:
Scholars must wear khaki bottoms daily unless otherwise instructed for special occasions, such as Spirit Week or Panther Pride Day.
Graphic outwear or shirts are not permitted.
Scholars should arrive each day in the appropriate Carver Early College uniform.
Thank you for your continued support! It has been amazing to see the unity and Panther Pride our scholars display each day. This is possible because of your dedication to ensuring our scholars look as great as they feel.
Wear It. Own It. Be Early College.
