Look for Judy Moody, Eric Carle, Lego Harry Potter and the new Wimpy Kid book, Cabin Fever, among others. There is something for everybody!  

All classes will visit the book fair to preview the books during the week of March 5th-9th. You will receive a specific time from your child’s teacher and are welcome to join them then. The students will then come back the following week with their classes for the opportunity to purchase the books they put on their wish lists.

Cultural Arts Day

cashowCarmel is putting on a Cultural Arts Day for students, staff, and families! Students are busy in art class preparing for the upcoming art show and our singers are practicing hard for their upcoming choral performances.

During the school day, students will be treated to a performance by the Atlanta Percussion Trio sponsored in part by the Carmel PTA. In addition, our chorus will perform for our students, which is always a treat.

Parents will be invited to see the school wide Art Show and musical performance that evening. Please look for more details including times later this month.
