Message from the Principal

Welcome to the Carson Elementary School website. It is with great pride that I invite you to browse the website and learn about our wonderful school. As stated in our school touchstone, “Carson is a warm, welcoming community offering a safe, nurturing, and challenging environment.” Even though our school serves students who are Deaf/Hard of Hearing, Highly Gifted/High Achieving and in Traditional classrooms, we believe we are one body, one unit, one family. We are proud of our efforts to celebrate differences; yet we join together to enhance the learning for all students collectively.

Carson has a staff of committed and caring educators who have high expectations for all students. It is our goal and we are committed to providing the very best learning opportunities across the curriculum. As a staff, we are engaged in ongoing staff development and conversations related to student work to maximize learning for all.

Carson has a wonderful parent community. We offer a broad range of volunteer opportunities for parents and welcome their participation. The Carson parents work to ensure the best for the students, staff, and each other. Upon entering our school, parents can be seen working with students, helping teachers and/or office staff.

At Carson, we believe character is who you are and what you do when no one else is watching. It is the goal of our character education program to teach students life long skills enabling them to grow to be caring and responsible citizens.

It is with pleasure that I invite you to visit our school located in the Hilltop/Crestmoor community. Please feel free to call us with your questions at anytime.
