Check Out the Library: Wow! With the emphasis on reading in our school, and the push to fill the shelves with new reading material, our fiction collection has grown to more than 4,000! The recent popularity of apocalyptic and "zombie" books has resulted in many new titles. New books are currently being displayed in the library. There is definitely something for every interest and level. Book requests can be brought to Mrs. Richardson.
The Senior Girls' Curling Team had their playoffs on Feb. 11th right here in Carlyle. They made some great shots during the day, including a beautiful double take-out for a win by skip Nicole Brown. But at the end of the day, they finished with 2 wins and 2 losses. Great job Brooklyn Zacharias, Kacey Valentine, Renae Faford, and Nicole Brown. A huge thanks to their coach Christina Birch and to this year's Curling Commissioner Amy Rutten.
