LOWER LAKE, Calif. – Carlé welcomed three more students last week.

The new students are Melanie Graf, Anessa Lopez and Devyn Viale. We hope Carlé High School helps them to achieve their graduation goals.

Carlé will be taking a trip to Santa Rosa Junior College.

“The plan is to take the entire school to Santa Rosa Junior College to learn about all the programs the school offers. Its another option for students, because some have already visited Mendocino Junior College and Yuba College,” said Carlé Principal Mr. Strahl.

Carlé is in the middle of a contest for the best yearbook cover; the winner will be receiving a free yearbook.

Student Angelique Smith was our student of the week last week. She is a hard worker and deep thinker who is truly kind.

Last weeks winner for CHILYS was Gage Fowler and he chose a basketball.

On Jan. 26 there will be no school because of a staff development day.

Hazmat certification classes taught by Angie Siegel went well this year. This was the first year that every student who took the exam passed and got their certifications.

“Hazmat was a pretty long class that was also very serious, we covered a lot of subjects such as isolating areas, and Identifying placards,” said student Daniel Salvante. “At the end we went to the firehouse and tried on hazmat suits and looked at hazmat equipment. On the final day we had the test to get our certification.” 

Carlé High School would like to thank Willie Sapeta and Mark Hill for showing the hazmat students the ropes.

“Hazmat is a state certification, it teaches students to recognize and identify hazardous materials, also how to isolate and deny entry, to keep people away from a hazardous situations,” said teacher Angie Siegel. “Students learn who to call, how to contain the situation in a definitive way, and they learned about personal protective equipment, levels o-a students must pass the state certification test with 70 percent or above. With this certification the students can now get a good job.”

One of our students Amari Wyle has graduated. Carlé High School congratulates him and wishes him well in his life post high school. Amari was hazmat-certified last year.   

Doyle Conatser and Daniel Salvante are student at Carlé Continuation High School in Lower Lake, Calif.
