Carver Elementary, along with Albert Hill Middle School, Armstrong High School and the Capital City Program, were the stops on a tour intended to highlight the strengths and successes of the system.

At Carver, the highlights were decidedly user-friendly. Among the many highlights Principal Iris Page touted was the “Reading is Fundamental” program. It encourages students to read more and backs up the challenge with books. In the past three years, students have taken home more than 10,000 free books. [via]
