🀄️ MahJongg Monday! 🀄️

We’ve got the Bams, Cracks & Dots covered… because apparently teachers needed another set of things to keep track of! 😂

We still love our Pickleball, but now we’re adding MahJongg to the Monday lineup matching tiles, enjoying peaceful conversation, and sharing a few laughs with friends. 🎾➕🀄️😊

A little time to relax, unwind, and enjoy the calm rhythm of the game makes Monday feel extra special. ✨

Lesson plans by day, MahJongg masters by Monday night. 💕

At Carlisle, student success is powered by so much more than what happens in the classroom. 💙

Today, our staff also came together to learn our new math curriculum across all grade levels. By collaborating, asking questions, and learning together, we’re building a strong foundation to provide the best possible learning experience for every Carlisle Coyote.

It truly takes a village, and we’re grateful for every person who helps make learning possible. 🐾📚

One Friday morning during Good Morning Carlisle, we had the honor of welcoming back some very special visitors! 🎓🐾

These students once walked the halls of Carlisle as elementary students, and seeing them return reminded us of how much they have grown and accomplished. We are incredibly proud of each of them and all they have achieved on their journey.

As they prepare for graduation, we celebrate their success and wish them the very best in the next chapter of their lives. No matter where they go, they will always be part of the Carlisle family and will forever be Coyotes. ❤️🐺

Today marks Coach Barbour’s final time helping with carpool as he begins his well earned retirement. After 30 years of teaching, mentoring, encouraging, and making a difference in the lives of countless students, it’s hard to imagine our school without him.

Thank you, Coach Barbour, for three decades of dedication, kindness, and commitment to our Carlisle community. Your impact will be felt for generations to come. Wishing you nothing but happiness and adventure in this next chapter,you’ve certainly earned it! ❤️🎉🍎
