In celebration of spring, the Student Council organized a “Spring Fling” for our last day of school before break. There were sports such as softball and frisbee, a water balloon battle, a slip and slide, as well as egg hunting. We feel that the students deserve this fun day and it was suggested, designed and implemented by our student council.
The T-shirt contest that was started last grading period is now ended. All those who entered won T-shirts with their own Carlé related design. These students were Alex Meek, Steven Vezeau, Jamila Parker, Debbie Powell and Paige Salvante. These students can now use their designs to represent Carlé High School anywhere they wear these shirts.
Soon we will be starting a music project during our lunch hour, where students can use the school's equipment to learn and write music together. Bryan Lane, a junior here at Carlé, has been put in charge of running this music project.
It is a great thing how musical talent seems to manifest itself so much at this school. I don't want to mention any names (Bryan), but there are rumors that a few people have met with a tricky salesman at the crossroads for such talent. When yearbooks are distributed, they will include a CD of the music produced by our students.
There are two students of the week to announce. Last week's student of the week was Alex Meek. Alex has helped an enormous amount with directing our daily bulletin, as well as the creation of our updated
website, and he is also a very kind and pleasant person.
This week's student of the week is Travis Conine. Travis is said to be the Renaissance man of Carlé. He is in charge a community service opportunity for our students at a monthly dinner, he runs a film crew for our media class, he is an intelligent student, and has a lovable personality. Congratulations to both
students for their remarkable achievements at this school.
An upcoming activity that we will be hosting soon, will be a basketball tournament. The team that wins the student tournament will be able to go head to head against the dreaded team of teachers (queue dramatic music).
The competition is going to be an intense one. The teachers can be intimidating out on the court, but we students have our youthful energy and pride on our side. In order to preserve my journalistic neutrality, I will refrain from making any biased predictions on who will win the final game (but the teachers don't
stand a chance).
Well that is all for this week's Carlé Chronicle! Have a great spring break!

Many of the students were nervous about how it would go, especially those that were performing, but
afterwards they were very happy with how it went. They shared their opinions, and thought it should become an annual event, because of how successful it was.
“The Cabaret was very fun,” said Jenna Ortega. “The community got to see how we interact at Carle, and it brought the Carle family closer together.”
Another student who participated, Faron Moran said, “If you had been there, you wouldn't want to leave.”
Courtney Montiel said, “Everybody worked hard as a community to get tasks done.”
The community at Carle is definitely what makes us shine. Courtney Lawson had this to say about the how the Cabaret turned out: “I think we impressed the audience. We wanted everyone to feel like they got their $20 worth.”
Students who were working and performing all enjoyed the Cabaret, and had opinions on their favorite acts. Ayla Hummingbird thought the acting in the “Abusive Boyfriend” skit was very believable. “Did he really hit her? That was an awesome act!” she said.
Steven Negrete, a student who performed himself in the Cabaret, said, “My favorite act was 'The Cell Block Tango.' It was incredible, unbelievable, and hot (tsssss) as a tea kettle.”
No matter who it is, all those who participated in the Cabaret were thoroughly pleased. Monsieur Pierre, a Frenchman and self-proclaimed master of the arts, helped host the Cabaret.
“The best part of the entire event was me of course!” Pierre responded when asked for his favorite performance. “My incredible good looks, unmatched charm and artful finesse are obviously what held the show together!”
Pierre later admitted that “some” of the show's success could be credited to the students and staff that worked hard to help put it all together.
Well, now that the Cabaret is over, we have new events that we can look forward to. Our trip to the Shakespearean festival in Ashland is coming up, and so is our prom!
In terms of holidays, we have the first Sunday after the first full moon after the vernal equinox on its way! That's right! Easter! Another ancient holiday, with traditions so old that most people don't even know what they mean anymore, but we still have fun painting eggs and biting the heads off of chocolate bunnies, anyway. Whether you celebrate the resurrection of Christ, or honor ancient fertility symbols, the only thing that really matters is that you get candy right? It is in my opinion.
That is all for this week's Chronicle. Thank you for reading!
