Last week we wrote about sustainability awards and reported on who got them. Now we will explain what they are.
Sustainability awards are given to people who maintain silver level or better for two or more consecutive grading periods. The idea was conceived by Carlé staff, who saw students doing really well one grading period and then riding on that, earning much less credit the next grading period. Students who maintain their efforts receive a certificate redeemable for items from our own student-based enterprise.
Carlé students and staff would like to thank Principal Strahl and his daughter, Carlé graduate Quintessa Strahl, for making pancakes and waffles for the whole school on April 17. They were delicious and it was a wonderful start to a great learning day. Carlé would like to thank Danny Salvante and Kenny Kalousek for picking up the paper recycling. We also would like to thank Jasmine Heckard, Kristen Melcher and Riley Nielson for recycling all our plastic, glass and aluminum on our campus. Teacher Alan Siegel is taking them all out to lunch as a reward and “thank you” for all their hard work.
On April 21, the Carlé students who achieved gold level last grading period took a trip led by teachers Angie Siegel and Robin Shrive to the Taylor Observatory. Carlé would like to thank Janice Traub, speaker at the observatory, and the staff of the observatory for showing us such a wonderful time. After the awesome show the teachers and students went to the Lake County Park to have a picnic lunch.
On April 23, Principal Strahl and super- Secretary Barbra Dye took students who have averaged 98 percent attendance all year to lunch at The Spot in Clearlake.
Also on the 23rd, student Regina Perrin-Clanton had her portfolio. Carlé congratulates her.
The student of the week last week was Cole Wynn. Cole is an outstanding student, and a great guy who will graduate this year. The CHILY winner last week was Dameon Dawson and he chose a football.
