carleheader

LOWER LAKE, Calif. – This week was the last week of the fifth grade period. On Monday, April 17, there will be no school due to an inclement whether day. Have a nice three-day weekend.

Carlé's 11th grade students will be starting scheduled ELA and math CAT testing on Tuesday, April 18, and continuing until April 23.

Carlé’s 12th graders have a science CAST test scheduled for the first week of May.

On April 11 Carlé students and staff took a trip to Woodland Community College. Once at the college students received tours of the college led by Bruno Sabatier, Ingrid Larsen and Pamela Bordisso.

During this tour of the Woodland campus students visited the cadaver lab/ biology lab, school store, library, daycare and finally the culinary program led by the wonderful Chef Robert Cabreros who led the students through his amazing culinary class.

Chef Robert and his culinary staff also held a lunch for the Carlé students. At this lunch Chef Robert’s culinary team prepared a variety of things including penne pasta with homemade sausage, Italian chopped salad, and a pizza bar with a wide variety of toppings.

Sherry Hoeckendorf, a Carlé staff member, said, “I enjoyed visiting the bio lab and seeing the cadavers, and also visiting the library.” She added, “The food was amazing.”

“I’m always so impressed by how far these students and teachers at Woodland go for us at Carlé and what they do for us and I’m so happy to have the opportunity to expose kids to this local college,” said Alan Siegel, a teacher at Carlé.

Teagan Tompioner, a student at Carlé, said “It was really cool, we learned a lot about the campus and really enjoyed the amazing food prepared by the culinary program.”

“Overall I feel less intimidated by college life and felt it was very beneficial to experience adult education,” said Ray Azevedo.

Alan Siegel and the students of the S.B.E. program are designing some thank you presents for the effort the wonderful group of people put into educate the kids of Carlé about Woodland and what the college has to offer. We at Carlé cannot thank you enough.

DJ’s Pizza held a fundraiser for Carlé on April 5. During this event admission to DJ’s cost $8 per person and you got all-you-can-eat pizza for the remainder of the fundraiser.

Our school secretary Sherry Hoeckendorf facilitated this fundraiser, and we would like to thank the students attended this event: Lloyd Bridges, Nick Kieffer, Kacy Barron, Candice Safreno and Brianna Legg. Thank you for supporting Carlé.

We at Carlé would like to give a special thank you to DJ’s Pizza owner Kyle Fehr and his crew of workers, Shane, Paul, Ryan, Nick and Justin.

DJ’s Pizza donated all 15 pizzas for this event; all the money raised will go toward student activities such as prom and other trips Carlé staff has planned.

DJ’s has supported Carlé for countless years so to show our appreciation new head designer Vanessa Bigelow designed a thank you plaque. We cannot thank DJ’s enough for their consistent support of our school.

About two weeks ago Carlé held a cardboard boxcar race (cars made out of cardboard boxes) in which the students raced around the track on the field. In this competition, each teacher had an advisory class as their “pit crew” and the task of this “pit crew” is to make sure the person running has water (fuel) clean shoes (tires) and to wipe their forehead (clean their windshield).

Angie Siegel’s advisory class won the race. After the students had a race the teachers then raced. The winner of the race was Lance though Maes came in a close second.

Nicholas Phipps is a student at Carlé Continuation High School.
