Carlé Chronicle: Generous donations, new classes and programs

carleheader

LOWER LAKE, Calif. – There are 10 weeks of school left; we at Carlé can’t believe that it’s that close to the end of school already.

Carlé would like to thank Chris Nuzzo and Damien Dawson for setting up the library for the C.A.H.S.E.E.

Carlé high school would like to thank Dr. Barry Munitz for donating $1,000 for our graduating seniors. 

This hugely generous donation – which Dr. Munitz has made for the last eight years – goes to make individual graduation plaques for each and every graduating senior.

What makes it even more special is that the staff comes up with the individual award and then students design and make the plaques with their own very special touches.

We could not do this without Dr. Munitz’s generosity.

When we add this to the scholarships we give out from the Russell Rustici scholarship fund it makes for a very special graduation.

Rustici a local rancher who was a veteran of the Battle of the Bulge in World War II, and passed away a few years ago, left a $300,000 bequest for scholarships, which will benefit graduating seniors of Carlé for many years to come. Many have already benefited from this and many more will in the future.

Carlé would like to thank Yuba College and counselors Valerie Plevney and Carol Swanson for signing up and holding a college readiness class here at Carlé.

This will be the first time ever that a college class will be held on our campus. A total of 21 students signed up for this class.

Last week Carlé had two students of the week, Isharae Lamar and Kenny Kalousek. Carlé congratulates them.

Poet laureate Casey Carney and Elaine Watt are holding the “Speak Up/Speak Out” program for girls.

Carney explained it like this: “Every body has a voice that needs to be heard, that is what this program is for so you can express your voice and emotions through poetry.”

The program starts Monday, April 6, and will last until June 1. It will take place every Monday from 3:30 to 5 p.m. at the Harbor on Main for girls only. For more information or to reserve a spot in the program call 707-994-5486.

Last week’s CHILY winner was Ashley Gilbert and she chose a blanket.

Last week was the third week of the grading period, so that means credit checks or what we call progress reports went out.

This next week is spring break for all of Konocti Unified School District schools, so Friday, March 27, will be a minimum day.

Spring break will run from March 30 to April 4.

Doyle Conatser and Danny Salvante are students at Carlé Continuation High School in Lower Lake, Calif.
