Educational Values of an Eagle
The distance between dreams and reality is called action!
This month, we are working on E - Enjoy
Please take time to review with your student over the next few weeks.
At Carlock, we believe in the importance of enjoyment. School should not be a place of stress
and pressure but a place of joy and discovery. Hence, we encourage our students to have fun
and enjoy their time at Carlock. Learning is a journey, and it should be thoroughly
enjoyed.

We could not put this night on without your help. PTC is still looking for donations for our live auction! If you own a business or know a company willing to donate, please bring it to the school office or contact Ashley Hull at hulla@unit5.org.

The Discovery Museum is back! On April 30 it will return for the students to participate in the Wind Car Program during their IMC time. We are looking for a few volunteers per class. Times are located in the sign up.
Winter / Spring Recess
We try to go outside whenever we can for recess. Please make sure that your student has a winter coat, gloves and a hat everyday. In addition, you may send snow pants and boots if your student would like to play in the snow. If students don't have snow pants and boots, we will ask them to stay on the black top.
If you need any of these items, please reach out to the main office, we can gladly help.
