Day 2 of 6th Grade Camp was a blast! The kids were awesome, and we packed in so many fun activities. We’re pretty sure there were some very tired students, parents, and staff by the end of the day! A huge thank you to Elkhorn Valley Camp for helping make this camp such a great experience. A special thank you to our parent chaperones who attended camp and helped make the trip so successful. We hope everyone made amazing memories that will last a lifetime! #minervapride 🦁

CARE Team members meet monthly and coordinate weekly services. CARE Team stands for Coordinate & Align Resources to Engage, Empower & Educate our youth. The program offers intervention and support for at-risk youth and their families. With a team of educators, law enforcement officials, mental health experts, and community agencies, they work with students and their parents to address the barriers that influence academic performance.
Family Support Specialists are an integral part of CARE Teams. They provide social-emotional assistance in school by connecting students and families to community resources to address challenges.
The primary goal is to help at-risk children stay in school, build independence, and achieve success in school and life.
CARE Team is a collaboration between United Way of Greater Stark County, Stark County Family Court, Stark County Job & Family Services, Stark Education Partnership, Stark County Family Council, Stark County Educational Service Center, Stark County Mental Health & Addiction Recovery, and the Stark County Board of Developmental Disabilities.

Camp will take place Thursday, May 7th and Friday, May 8th.
Please note, due to a change in busing, students will now return on Friday at approximately 6:15 PM. We apologize for the late notice and appreciate your understanding.
Be sure students review the packing list and come prepared with everything they need for a great trip! 🌲 #minervapride 🦁
