Carus School News
Dear Carus Families,
This week has been filled with exciting discoveries, joyful moments, and meaningful connections. I watched students and staff approach tasks with enthusiasm, curiosity and so much support for one another.
I hope you have a wonderful three-day weekend. Our staff will be working Monday to do grades for all students and plan for more learning that will inspire growth, laughter and a sense of community in the classroom and school.
Warm Regards,
Nicole Goff
Carus Principal
