As the calendar turns to spring, there is a wave of excitement among Carver High School students. It's time for the much-anticipated 2024 Spring College Tour, an annual tradition that has become a rite of passage for Carver students.
Every year, Carver takes at least 30 students on a transformative road trip, visiting no fewer than ten colleges and universities across multiple states. This year's tour promises to be an unforgettable experience, with stops at prestigious institutions like Hampton College, Norfolk State University, Virginia State University, Georgetown University, Howard University, Morgan State University, and the University of Maryland.
Carver students have an unwavering determination to contribute to the costs of their journey. Recognizing the importance of leadership and self-empowerment, these driven young minds have already raised an impressive $3,000 through fundraising efforts, including in their respective schools.
On March 30th, 2024, from 7 a.m. to 12 p.m., Carver students will be stationed at Dunkin Donuts at 650 West Ave in Norwalk, eagerly awaiting the community's support. This fundraiser offers a unique opportunity for residents and businesses to directly contribute to the dreams and aspirations of Carver's students.
For those unable to attend the fundraiser, fear not! Donations can be made online or by sending a check to The Carver, with the memo stating "Carver Spring College Tour."
As the Carver community rallies behind these ambitious students, it's clear that their journey extends far beyond the physical miles they'll travel. It's a testament to the power of determination, innovation, and a shared commitment to nurturing the leaders of tomorrow.
From April 13th to April 20th, these trailblazers will board a chartered bus at the Carver Community Center, embarking on self-discovery and limitless possibilities. Guided by dedicated chaperones, including Carver's CEO, Novelette Peterkin, and supported at each college visit by school administrators, admissions officers, and successful alumni, the students will gain invaluable insights into the college experience.
This Spring College Tour is more than just a trip; it's a transformative odyssey that will shape dreams, forge connections, and inspire a new generation of achievers. As the Carver community cheers them on, these students are not just raising funds; they're raising the bar for what it means to take charge of one's future.
Join us in supporting these remarkable young minds as they blaze a trail of innovation, determination, and boundless potential. Together, we can ensure that the 2024 Spring College Tour is a resounding success, paving the way for countless future leaders to follow in their footsteps.
