We graduate empowered change agents who create positive, long-lasting impact in their communities.
We cultivate students’ skills and agency in pursuit of their unlimited potential. We do this through authentic and culturally relevant project-based instruction alongside enrichment, a safe and positive climate and culture, and student and family supports.
We engage the whole child and the whole employee on Purpose. Because we have an unwavering belief in the potential of every human being, we approach everyone holistically. Learn about our model for success
We focus on cultivating a mindset that continuously challenges the status quo on Purpose. We realize growth is a daily pursuit, and adaptability is key, so we stay curious, open to feedback, and willing to evolve. Learn about our positive climate and culture
We hold unapologetically high standards for ourselves, our students, and each other on Purpose. Learn about whole child development
We proactively take initiative, prioritize action, and embrace responsibility for the overall outcomes on Purpose. We assume responsibility for the end results, not just our part. Learn about our model for success
We believe our schools and communities are stronger when we work together on Purpose. By building bridges to our families and community members, we create a foundation of support, collaboration, and shared responsibility. Learn about student and family support

Grateful for the amazing PBSA staff that keep our schools running and our scholars thriving! #PBSA

We are thrilled to announce that the @carverpbsa Mighty Marching Panthers have been nominated as one of the top 25 high school bands in the Metro Atlanta area by ESPN! This puts our musicians in the running for the ESPN Band of the Year event, a nationally televised competition that could showcase the Mighty Marching Panthers on a national stage. We need your votes to stay in the running! Please vote often and share this opportunity with your family and friends. https://www.elysianportal.com/vote/atlanta-band-of-the-year

Ready to take your business to the next level? Applications are OPEN for Start:ME 2027, a FREE 4-month program through Emory University’s Goizueta Business School! 💼✨ See flyer for more details!

This summer, our PBSA scholars spent their time at @projectsouthatl learning the art of organizing and the deep history of their own community — through archives, art, land, and even helping facilitate a Juneteenth celebration.

Through Dream Builders of Atlanta, Carver STEAM students spent their summers turning dreams into plans for their futures. Dream Builders provides summer job training, camp and intern opportunities that engage youth to get involved in their communities, schools, and positive extracurricular activities.

Please join us! Our Board of Directors will meet on Sept. 23 at 11:30am at Price Middle School.
