The end of the year state testing starts next week. Good luck to all students of Carlé High School and the rest of the state. We will have comments next week on how the testing went.
The theme for prom this year has been decided and it is “A Night Under The Stars.” We are gearing up for prom May 6. Prom tickets will be sold at the price of $10 per person. The wonderful Andre Ari will be DJing and we will host it at our home here at Carlé with each room having a different theme and activity in it. The library will be used as the dance room. More details to come.
The student of the week was Destiny Blevins.
Alan Siegel, nominating teacher had this to say, “Destiny had 20.7 credits in the fifth grading period which made her the student with the highest credits earned. The typical student gets about 12. She had 100 percent attendance. Blevins and Sam Miller make birthday cards and do all the recycling for student and staff alike, and she always puts 100 percent into everything she does.”
All of Carlé High School is prepping for graduation. Media students are currently making award plaques for the graduating class of 2016. We are also creating award plaques for Lower Lake High School and 20 mugs for Dr. Thomas Hewlett, D.D.S.
Our most recent students to complete credits and portfolio presentations were: Vanessa Leon, Alicia Burgos, Desteny Cypert, and Alyssa Garnett.
“This year portfolios have been great. This is my first year being the instructor. Before students have to present they have to do a ‘dress rehearsal,’ which give the students the chance to fix mistakes,” portfolio teacher Dan Maes said. “This has really helped the students. In the long run it has helped provide the speakers a smoother presentation.”
“Yearbooks are almost ready. Desteny Cypert and Sam Miller have been working extremely hard and they have done a great job. Yearbooks will be sold for $15. When the students finish we will send them to Entourage Productions. They will arrive May 23, which is the Monday before graduation,” Matt Strahl, principal of Carlé High School, said.
