WELCOME TO
CARVER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
HOME OF THE COMETS
Mr. Jimmy Bruhl, School Principal
Welcome Back, Carver Families and Community!
We hope you had a restful and rejuvenating break. As we embark on this new academic year, we are excited to share our renewed commitment to the SAUSD Framework for the Future, guiding our efforts to align with our District's vision and goals.
Our Values
At Carver, we embody the following values:
Collaboration: We foster inclusive collaboration by uniting students, educators, and the community to achieve shared goals through teamwork, open communication, and mutual support.
Perseverance: We empower students to embrace challenges, persist in the face of adversity, and cultivate the necessary well-being essential for achieving goals and thriving.
Engagement: We promote active and meaningful participation and growth by providing diverse learning opportunities, instilling a passion for excellence, and fostering a spirit of curiosity to create lifelong learners.
Empathy: We understand and value the diverse experiences and perspectives of our students, staff, and community, fostering a culture of belonging, mutual respect, and compassion.
Inclusive Equity: We create an inclusive environment where all stakeholders, regardless of background, are valued, respected, and empowered to contribute to the rich tapestry of our educational community.
These core values are not just words but the foundation of our actions and interactions. They drive us to work together harmoniously, persist through challenges, remain actively involved in our students' growth, show compassion and understanding, and ensure fair and inclusive opportunities for all.
Inclusive Learning Opportunities
Our primary objective is to offer inclusive learning opportunities that are relevant, intentional, and engaging for our students. We recognize the importance of creating an environment where every student feels valued and has the opportunity to thrive. This year, our teaching and learning strategies will be firmly aligned with the SAUSD Learning Model, which emphasizes Personalized, Authentic, Competency-Based, Inclusive, and Equitable education.
SAUSD Learning Model Alignment
Personalized Learning: Learning is co-constructed based on each learner’s unique strengths, skills, interests, and needs.
Authentic Learning: Meaningful, relevant learning grounded in real-world challenges and applications for authentic audiences.
Competency-Based Learning: Learning is driven by evidence-based instruction, assessment, and feedback cycle based on progress toward desired knowledge, skills, and dispositions.
Inclusive & Equitable Learning: Learning communities are collaborative and culturally relevant, where every learner feels they belong and can tap into their full potential, contributing to the collective success of their community.
Moving Forward
As we move forward, let's embrace these principles and work collaboratively to create a positive and impactful learning experience for our students. Your dedication and passion are vital to our success, and we are confident that together, we can achieve great things this year.
Welcome back, and let's make this an exceptional year for the Carver community!
Warm regards,
Jimmy Bruhl
Principal, Carver Elementary School, SAUSD
