Purpose Built Schools Atlanta is proud to celebrate Carver STEAM Academy’s incredible progress. The Class of 2025 achieved a four-year graduation rate of 91.04%, representing an impressive 12-point increase from previous years and the largest increase of any @APS school in 2025!
We empower students to become change agents who create positive, long-lasting impact in their communities.
The key to our success is innovative, caring educators who come to school every day excited to help students – and their families – discover their excellence.
After forming the highly successful model at Drew Charter School, our leaders are building on that to deliver results for public neighborhood schools in south Atlanta.
