The Girls +1 Dance on Saturday was such a great time! Kudos to our dads, moms, uncles, aunts, grandparents, and even older brothers who danced and hula hooped the night away. Many thanks to our Booster Club members who spent many hours on this event for our students!
This week we celebrated our amazing I.A. staff as well as Mrs. Jenn Craig our media specialist. These ladies work tirelessly for our students. Thank you for playing such an important role in our Carlin Park family
"Whether it's fostering literacy, creating safe spaces, providing valuable resources, supporting teachers, caring for books, or teaching digital literacy, we deeply appreciate everything our media specialists do. Thank you for your dedication and hard work!"
Mrs. Pugh's kindergarten class used their creativity to build mouse habitats. They were very excited to get toy mouses to try them out!
During STEAM class our 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students participated in a March Madness style bracket tournament to see who was the fastest typer in each class. Each winner got their picture taken in the winner's circle with their award.
Our paraprofessionals are true difference-makers, and our classrooms simply wouldn’t function without their dedication and support. Thank you for all that you do!
We have 2 events coming up at Carlin Park- the Girls +1 Dance and our annual Book Fair. See below for details:

Last evening, each of our elementary schools hosted a Title I Night called the Amazing Reading Race! Students read clues with their families and raced around the building to find teachers that shared about the five pillars of literacy. Families also got materials to practice and take home to continue practicing reading skills at home. The partnership between teachers, students, and families are game changing for student success!
Congratulations to Dawn Rowe, Carlin Park's Teacher of the Year! Her dedication, enthusiasm, and passion for learning are truly appreciated and make her an invaluable asset to our school!
A sure sign of spring...
Today the weather was PERFECT for recess. Tomorrow the temperature will be in the 30s during that time. Please continue to send your children with coats as the Indiana weather keeps us guessing from day to day. Thank you!
