Come relax on the beach and put your toes in the sand, enjoy luaus and shells.

Rumble through the jungle as they spot out the monkeys, lions and tigers.

They’ll even blast off into space on a rocket ship and discover the moon, stars and planets, and much more.

Themes involve arts and crafts, water play and learning. It’s a great review for those going to kindergarten and pre-kindergarten as well.

Carlé Chronicle: Time to buckle down

Counting this week, we will have eight weeks left in the school year. We’re getting very close so all of you hopeful graduates want to turn in as much work as possible.

It’s time to buckle down and get every little thing done so you can enjoy your summer knowing you gave it your best.

Thanks to student Sabrina Farnan for taking over the job of designing birthday cards for the students at Carlé. Sabrina actually took over this job a while ago, but we wanted to make sure she received the credit that was due to her. Thanks Sabrina.

The T-Shirt contest has come to an end. This is probably Carlé’s most popular contest of the year to participate in. Plenty of Carlé designers, as well as some others that aren’t regular designers, designed and printed their very own Carlé shirts.

Various design ideas came through ranging from simple to very complex, with designs appearing on both the front and back of the shirts. Some of the designers included Lance Thurston, Danielle Stennet, Junior Garcia, Lukas Carlson, Roxie Perdum-White, Chris Stuta and Jesse Harrell.

Carlé’s prom is on it’s way, and so far it is turning out to be a very well planned event. Through student council Carlé as a whole has voted on just about everything to do with the prom and how it will play out.

We’ve voted on the songs, the theme, how much the payment to get in is, and everything in between. Carlé will be self DJing ourselves with music selected by our students. The prom is scheduled for Friday, May 10.

A gigantic thank you to Dr. Barry Munitz. This wonderful man has for five years now donated to Carlé $1,000 each year for the school to make our graduating senior plaques. This man is in no way required to do this for us and we’re very grateful for him to do this for us out of the kindness of his heart. This year we will be having about 25 graduates and Dr. Munitz’s donation really helps us make it special for them.

Student of the Week was Camari Onwuasoeze. Camari is a hard working and passionate student who definitely deserves this privileged award. He’s been at Carlé two years and will be graduating very soon. The staff voted unanimously for Camari this week. Congratulations on this honor.

Lance Thurston and Andrew Subjack have begun to take over as the new students who will run our daily morning bulletin for next year.

Every year and a half new students are trained by the previous students to do all the jobs that make Carlé so special, including running the tech for the bulletin, this article, all the recycling, all new designers for our school-based enterprise and many more jobs that help us be so special. Thanks to all our dedicated students who get the jobs done.  

It appears that students Kassandra Colwell and Timothy Mcguire will be the students that this article is handed to after student Jesse Harrell graduates this year.

Jesse Harrell is a student at Carlé Continuation High School in Lower Lake, Calif.

UPPER LAKE, Calif. – Students in the after school program at Upper Lake Elementary have been building LEGO robots with the help of volunteers from the Children's Museum of Art and Science (CMAS).

Students are enjoying the two-hour sessions and are gaining great skills in problem solving while being exposed to basic physics concepts.

The LEGO WeDo kits were purchased by CMAS in order to expose Lake County youth to basic robotics with a fun, hands-on approach.

‘Concepts of Biology’ class offered online this summer at Mendocino College

Published: 14 April 2013

UKIAH, Calif. – Veteran science Professor Alan West is excited about offering Biology 200 Concepts of Biology as an online course this summer.

Concepts of Biology, not only meets the science general education requirement for a degree at Mendocino College, it is a UC/CSU transferrable level course.

“Online is an exciting new alternative for students to take required courses. In our small rural community, students are often faced with commuting from long distances and incur child care costs. This alternate delivery system provides students with a relatively easy way to complete coursework from home,” said West.

West admits to being reluctant at first to teaching online but acknowledges that based on people’s comfort level with social media and transportation issues in our area, it just makes sense to offer online coursework.

While the majority of his students are residents of Lake, Mendocino and Sonoma counties, he has had online students from as far as New York, Washington State and Los Angeles.

Priority registration for the summer program begins on April 15 with open registration for all students on April 23. Summer school begins on June 10.
