I am regular visitor, how are you everybody? This article posted at this site is in fact pleasant.
Honor Roll?? My child goes to Carver and we haven’t had Honor Roll this year. Mrs. Berlyn stopped giving Honor Rolls to the students without even communicating to the parents as to why she has done this. Maybe that could be a new article you can write…. “Carver Academy no longer hands out Honor Roll Award to their deserving students”.
