It has been quite a year here at the Carmel Elementary ESE program. It's hard to believe we're already getting ready for summer! The school year has really flown by! Even though we are sad to say good-bye to our 5th graders, we are excited to say hello to a new group of kindergarteners in the fall! We wish the 5th graders good luck as they prepare to begin life as middle school students.

We have had a lot of fun during this school year. Some highlights include Disco Fever Night, our Halloween Costume Party, our field trip to see A Christmas Carol in 3D on the IMAX, and our Under the Stars of Hollywood event. Coming up on May 14 is our next site celebration, the ESE Dinner Theater. This event will run from 7-9:00 p.m. We are also planning something fun and exciting for the last day of school, May 27. Check out the parent table during the next couple weeks to find out what we're planning to do! We hope everyone has a great summer break! Don't forget to sign up for summer camp!

Thursday, May 27th is the last day of school and the students will be dismissed at 10:50 am. On that day, we plan to get “strikes” at Woodland Bowl! The bus will leave Carmel Elementary at noon and return by 3:30pm. If your student will attend program that day, then they will need a lunch and snack. If your student will not be attending, then they may still attend program immediately after school. However, they will need to be picked up by noon before we depart for the field trip.

Students may be signed-up to bowl with their friends at the sign-out table. You may make reservations in pencil and choose your lanes based on the use of bumpers. Parents are welcome to attend this fieldtrip and they will be responsible for their shoe rental and bowling. If you have any further questions, please let us know.

Have an awesome summer, and we hope to see you next fall!!!
