Hello readers, and welcome to the Carlé Chronicle, your primary news source for all things Carlé.

Congratulations to this week's student of the week, Chenoa Schmidt. Chenoa is a hard working and passionate student who is always willing to help other students excel.

Here at Carlé High School, we take a very personal and individualized approach with our students. We maintain a shared goal to learn and advance the pursuit of knowledge through collaboration and teamwork, and to help students gain the experience they need for the challenges and opportunities they will face later in life.

Big thanks to our staff members, who work around the clock to ensure every student receives what they need to graduate and excel and are allowed the opportunity to succeed and reach their dreams.

Every three weeks, students receive their grades in the form of progress reports or report cards, which are given out by their advisory teachers.

Advisory teachers help students manage their grades, work towards goals, and give advice on how best to proceed with their plans.

We have a number of important events coming up soon.

The English and math portions of the California High School Exit Exams (CAHSEEs) will take place on March 18 and 19 for juniors and seniors who need to retake the test.

Students Roy Kirk and Sabrina Farnan designed key chains to give out for donations to fund our prom.

We currently have about 100 keychains ready to sell for $7 each, although buyers have the choice to give larger donations if they please.

Every dollar earned from keychain sales helps fund our school's prom and is very much appreciated.

If any Carlé Chronicle readers want to buy any, call the school to order a key chain at 707-994-1033.

May 9 marks the date of Carlé's prom, which will be planned in the theme of Hollywood by our own student government. Students are encouraged to embrace pop culture and media and have a fun time!

Open House night will take place on April 3 at Carlé. In addition to an upcoming play by students DeAndre Morris and Paul Yanez, school officials will also be unveiling a new funding program for education in California.

Parents, teachers and officials alike are encouraged to come by and give input on these new ideas to help further advance the pursuit of education for our students.

In closing I'd like to thank teachers Alan Siegel and Robin Shrive, for introducing me to the Carlé Chronicle and for helping me realize my personal goals of investigative journalism.

And a big thanks to our students and all our readers for your continued support, this article wouldn't be possible without you!
