While the outcome is not what we wanted, the Homecoming celebration and fun will continue with the planned bonfire and athletic recognitions. For the last several months, our district has been fortunate to have Dr. Foster serving as our interim Assistant Superintendent for Instruction while the position remained vacant. Throughout November, for Native American Heritage Month, several elementary and middle school classes had the opportunity to learn more about the traditions and way of life of the native people who inhabited, and still live in, our local areas. Read more and see photos from Native American Heritage Month lessons. We are excited for Michael to join the district’s administrative team and we look forward to working with him at Kent Elementary School. We also thank our interim principal, Anthony DiCarlo, for his dedicated guidance in the role over the last several weeks.
Carmel Beach Rules
Parents must provide their influence as role models and sources of advice for their child during the elementary years. When picking up students from school, please do not take your children into other classrooms or other locations in the building. Once children are signed out, they should be supervised by their parents, and you should exit the building promptly. The school has been extensively refurbished, largely due to the passage of two school bonds that provided upgrades to all schools within the Carmel Unified School District. The most recent bond, passed in 2005, funded the building of the new Center for the Performing Arts and swimming pool, upgraded athletic facilities and added permanent classrooms to replace portables. Carmel High School proudly announced senior Christian Yom as valedictorian and senior Kyle Grgecic as salutatorian for the Class of 2023.
To celebrate our national anthem, The Star-Spangled Banner, music teacher Nina Madison shared the history of the anthem using an illustrated picture book of the lyrics. The students took turns reading the lyrics to the song while Madison translated and explained the words in age-appropriate terms. It was no tricks and all treats for Matthew Paterson Elementary kindergarten students on Halloween!
Middle School Students Absorb a Lesson in Science
Throughout the year, students prepared for their final music concert as Kent Elementary students with songs from around the world. This year’s concert was a celebration of culture, language and music and featured songs from six different countries and in five different languages. See photos and a video from the Kent Elementary Grade 4 Music Celebration. CHS is also known for its Instrumental and Choral Music programs where students have achieved state and national recognition.
With plenty of comfortable seating, and optional stuffed animals for support, students settled in around a faux campfire in the library’s lab for the readings. The tradition continued for third-grade students at Matthew Paterson Elementary School this year with the annual Thanksgiving Celebration. For more than 45 years, third-grade students and teachers have been gathering for a fun-filled day of seasonal activities, academic lessons, crafts, food and more – and this year was no different.
Celebrating Native American Heritage Month
We look forward to recognizing our fall athletes at the event with special performances to follow. Regrettably, we will be unable to host the fireworks display as previously planned. While much planning was done by the District and the Carmel Rams Booster Club to secure a vendor to provide celebratory fireworks, unfortunately, insurance coverage and liability issues are preventing the display from happening.
We offer an outstanding range of electives, including popular classes in Dance, Photography, Graphic Design, Video Production, Industrial Arts, and Fine Art. Our ROP vocational courses offer a wide range of career development opportunities in Sports Medicine, Digital Music, Hospitality, and more. Carmel High is a school of 860 students with over 50 faculty members, situated just outside of the city limits of Carmel, California. Built in 1940, CHS is known for its lovely view of the Santa Lucia Mountains with a peek of Point Lobos and the Pacific Ocean. Cherokee County School District does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age or disability in its programs, activities or employment practices.
Immersing in Art History at Carmel High School
Last night, we had the privilege of graduating 384 Carmel High School seniors who are more than ready to accomplish great things in their next chapter. We wish our seniors much success and happiness in the years to come and remind them to stay in touch! To all our students returning to our schools in the fall, we look forward to adding more wonderful memories with you in your next chapter with us. As you know, Carmel Central School District collaborates closely with the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department to place School Resource Officers in our District schools. It was a star-spangled festive music class for fourth-grade students at Kent Elementary School.

I remain immensely grateful for all that you do for our students every day. Again, we hope to see the entire Carmel Community at the parade and football game on Saturday. We also extend our heartful thanks to all those parents, staff members, and volunteers who are supporting our students in what is sure to be another memorable Spirit Week and Homecoming.
Not only are Yom and Grgecic the top students of their graduating class, but long-time friends. It was a lesson in shaking, rattling, and rolling for Earth Science students in Tracy Brusie’s classes at George Fischer Middle School during a unit on earthquakes. Students used their geology skills and compasses to interpret seismographs from three separate locations, finding the arrival times of primary waves (p-waves) and secondary waves (s-waves) in order to determine the earthquake's epicenter.

History
Thank you to our parents, guardians and community members for your unwavering support of our students – at home, in our buildings and on our fields. Your dedication to the children of our district and your partnership to ensure that they have the best possible education is incredible to witness. For fourth-grade students at Kent Elementary, music was a gateway to the world this year.
CHS has been a top performing public high school in Monterey County for many years. Over 95% of our students continue on to both junior college or four year colleges and universities. We will continue to cherish our strong home-school partnership that exists within our community as we embark on a new year full of hope, promise and optimism.
