The G.W. Carver High School STEM Magnet Program is a program designed to equip our youth with the skills needed to be proficient and prepared for post-secondary study and the 21st century workforce. The STEM Magnet Program is a rigorous, project-based program but also includes educational field trips that offer our students opportunities to learn more about STEM related careers. Students are able to choose a track program (Agriculture, Logistics, or Technical Skills) that they feel they would like to pursue in their post secondary career. The Agriculture track allows students to explore the concepts of Agricultural Engineering. The Logistics track allows students to explore the different concepts of distribution, coding, robotics, and more. The Technical Skills track allows students to choose from the pathways of Automotive, Food & Nutrition, Healthcare Tech, or Digital Marketing. 

In our STEM Magnet program, our magnet students are given opportunities to earn college credits while also receiving a high school credit, through the choice of taking Advanced Placement courses held within the school or Dual Enrollment courses with Columbus State University, Columbus Technical College, and Georgia Military College.
