Hello readers, and welcome to the Carl? Chronicle, the primary news source for all things Carl?.
Aaron Beecher was Carl?”s final Student of the Week. Beecher is an intellectual student who has strong computer technical skills and test scores just as strong. We”ll be glad to see him back here next year.

Graduation took place on Wednesday evening at the Lower Lake field. It”s been a pleasure to have their talents here and we all wish them the best towards their future. It”s been an amazing year here. Not only did we get to help many students succeed academically, we also managed to have a whole lot of fun on the side. Between the barbeques and get-togethers, amazing gold-level field trips, silver-level movie days and other fun events, it”s been a blast.
At Carl?, we pride ourselves on our independence and hands-on, personalized approach to learning. However, students and staff alike not only support themselves, but the school and community as well. One of Carl?”s foundations is its strength to achieve greatness through teamwork, cooperation and support.
Community service and specifically the seafood boil and charity event on Feb. 22, where students waited tables and helped set up and clean up, was a great help this year. We”re always happy to come together and help out the community in any way we can.
Each and every one of the staff members do a lot for the school and their students, and each teacher here has helped us in many different ways.
I”d personally like to thank our core teachers. Thank you to Alan Siegel for teaching me history, civics and economics and helping me pursue my passion for writing and journalism; to Angie Siegel for her support and excellent teaching of science including environmental detectives and hazmat; to Dan Maes for his no-nonsense views and keeping us on task in math and to Robin Shrive for her insight on all things concerning English.
A big thanks goes to our other staff members as well, particularly secretary Barbara Dye who helps keep this school running smoothly and encourages positive views. We also would like to thank assistants Guein Bouscal and Pat Howell for their kindness and academic support; our janitors, Gary Oakes and Neb Tosich, for helping keep the school looking great and fixing things up and our food servers, Gail Clarke and Donna Lothringer, for helping serve all the food and keeping smiles on everyone”s faces.
Another thanks to our go to substitute teachers, Cathy Hamann and Julie Kreis, who always have a positive approach and are always willing to lend a hand.
We”d all like to thank Pamela Bordisso from Yuba College for stopping by many times during this school year and lending assistance to the students who have been interested in enrollment at Yuba College, Clear Lake.
Another big thanks to Barry Munitz for generously donating $1000 for supplies towards the school”s graduation plaques. His support has been invaluable towards both funds and morale.
And last of all, I”d like to thank all our readers for their continued support and for helping some of the little school”s biggest voices be heard through the paper. This will be the Carl? Chronicle”s last newspaper column of the school year; the columns will resume in September. Thank you all and I hope all of you have an amazing summer.
