Carver High School Commencement Programs

For generations of students in Brownsville and Haywood County, graduation from Carver High School marked an important milestone in both personal achievement and community pride. Commencement ceremonies celebrated not only the accomplishments of the graduating class, but also the dedication of teachers, families, and the broader community that supported the school.

This page features a collection of historic Carver High School commencement programs, preserved by the Dunbar Carver Museum. These programs offer a unique glimpse into the history of the school and the lives of the students who passed through its halls.

Within these programs you will find the names of graduating seniors, faculty members, class officers, speakers, and special guests who participated in these ceremonies. For many families, these documents provide an important historical record—often the only surviving written record of a student's graduation.

We invite alumni, family members, researchers, and visitors to explore these programs and rediscover the proud legacy of Carver High School. Each program represents a class of students who carried forward the values of education, perseverance, and community that defined the Carver tradition.

If you have a commencement program or other Carver High School materials that you would like to share or preserve, the museum welcomes the opportunity to add them to this growing historical archive.
