We Are Exceptional Personalized Learning

Our students are given the power to shape their education, supported by high academic standards and guided by caring and knowledgeable staff. Personalized learning created learners who are motivated and excited about coming to school.

Happening at Eastern Carver

Our weather can change quickly this time of year. In the event of a weather-related school closing or late start/early release, parents will be contacted as soon as possible by email and/or phone.

Purposeful Learning

Teachers in Eastern Carver County Schools not only lead instruction but also facilitate learning for each student. They teach by guiding students towards mastery of content and instilling 21st century skills.

Engagement with Learning Tools

With teachers as facilitators, students use a variety of educational tools and resources to maximize learning. Our goal is to prepare students for success beyond high school, wherever their aspirations take them.

Collaborative Environment

We are redefining learning spaces with a variety of furniture, layouts and technology that facilitate collaboration, creativity, comfort, and safety.

Learner Voice & Choice

Students have the freedom to design the way they showcase their learning based on individual styles, experiences, passions, and needs. Respected as capable co-designers, learner agency is cultivated throughout all learning.

Device Specifications

Below are specifications of devices provided most frequently for student use in classrooms. Computer hardware and software used for education qualify for Minnesota’s income tax K-12 Education Credit and Subtraction (please read this information from the Department of Revenue or consult your tax preparer).

In-School Wireless

The primary object of our wireless and internet access is to provide wireless coverage and internet access to devices used for classroom and classroom related access for learning. It is not our intention to provide access for personal use related to non-school work in areas such streaming, texting, gaming, etc.

WiFi Options Away From School

Comcast and CenturyLink offer affordable internet as low as $9.95 a month*.

What is a Chromebook and why was it selected?

The district’s focus is not the device or brand, but on using technology effectively. A device is another tool for our excellent teachers to promote transformational learning experiences in Eastern Carver County Schools. A Chromebook is a laptop that primarily runs web-based software and Google’s Android operating system.

How do I connect to my WiFi at home?

Click on the Wi-Fi icon on the lower left of the Chromebook to see a list of available networks. Click on the name of the network that you wish to connect to and then enter the Wi-Fi password (if it is password protected)). More information on connecting the Chromebook to Wi-Fi can be found by clicking here.

How long will my battery last?

While battery time will vary depending on what you are doing, in general Chromebooks have exceptional battery length. When fully charged a Chromebook should last the entire school day. Student Chromebooks need to be charged nightly so they are ready for the next day at school.

Can a student use a personal Google account they have already created instead of the district's account?

No. Eastern Carver County Schools has adopted Google Apps for Education. Only the account that Eastern Carver County Schools creates for each student is the account supported on the Chromebooks.
