Congratulations Carnelian Elementary for receiving the PBIS Silver Award recognition! This recognition is for the hard work and dedication our community puts in to making sure our students know what it means to do things “The Cardinal Way”, by being safe, kind and proud. We are proud of this achievement and we are grateful to our staff and families for supporting this process!

Want to know what it means to be a Title 1 school? Join us tonight on google meet and we can show you! The meet link will be sent to your email just before 5:00. 👍🏻

As we remember the events of 9/11, we can’t forget the bravery and sacrifice of the First Responders on that day. Carnelian would like to recognize and honor the First Responders in our community this Wednesday. @altalomaschools @carnelian_pta @explore.carnelian

There's a 3-day weekend coming up Carnelian!

Hello Carnelian Community! The monthly Cardinal Update newsletter will be going out soon. In the meantime, here are some upcoming events for your calendar! Our Dine Out Event on September 4th is at The Habit! In the month of September, students, staff and the community are encouraged to wear yellow on Wednesdays as this is the color connected to our character trait of the month, Respect. More info to come on our new character program, but just wanted to put it on your radar!

See you all tonight!

Carnelian Cardinals in grades 1-5 begin their I-Ready Diagnostic Assessments next week! We are encouraging our students to take their time and do their best. We use the data from these assessments to determine which students need extra support and which students are ready for enrichment learning. Let’s go Cardinals!

We are beyond excited to see our Carnelian Cardinals on Monday! Be Safe, Be Kind, Be Proud and have a GREAT Cardinal day!
