Carnelian is heading into a December to Remember month of holiday-themed spirit days! Let's start by dressing like a penguin tomorrow and wearing black and white! Penguin shirts and hats are also encouraged!

Hello Carnelian Families! We are just one day away from entering Thanksgiving Break. We appreciate our community, the partnership and collaboration between staff and families this week for parent conferences. The parking lot has been pretty congested this week with parent conferences and special Thanksgiving themed events, so parking lot reminders will be sent home before we return from break in December. As we head into tomorrow, please be aware of the following important information: *TK and Kindergarten will all be following the A.M. schedule, which is 8:10 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. This means there will be significantly more drop offs in the morning. Please allow for extra time in the morning and your patience is greatly appreciated. *PTA will be selling tickets after school for the In n Out Fundraising truck that is coming to Carnelian on Wednesday, December 4th (See attached). Tickets are $5 and include a cheeseburger, bag of chips and a drink. A big percentage of the proceeds goes back to Carnelian students for playground equipment, assemblies and other fun incentive activities. Don't miss out on this great opportunity for a yummy dinner! *Trimester 1 Awards Assemblies for grades 4-6 will be taking place tomorrow morning (see attached). This will also impact the parking lot and traffic. Field parking will not be available for these assemblies, so please allow extra time to park in the neighborhood and walk to campus. *December to Remember Spirit Days are starting right after Thanksgiving Break! Each day in December will be a special holiday-winter-themed spirit day as we countdown to Winter Break! See the attached the calendar! More information will be coming soon regarding Carnelian updates for December. Have a GREAT Cardinal Day!

Trimester 1 Awards Assemblies for grades 4-6 will take place this Friday, November 22nd.

Carnelian Community - as we head into parent conference week, don't forget that grades 1-6 are on modified schedule the entire week! Dismissal is at 1:10 Monday - Friday. Then, we head into Thanksgiving Break from November 25-29. Have a great week!
