Morning Reporters
Carleton Morning Reporters have the distinguished honor of starting the day off for our student body. They do live presentations through Teams for classes to view in their individual rooms. The reporters lead the Carleton Creed, provide general news including weather, lunch menu, birthdays and school announcements. They end their report by modeling a Calm Classroom technique for students to replicate in their classrooms so everyone starts their day in the right mindset. Students can express their interest in becoming a reporter to their teacher. Students will need to do a tryout session to ensure they can speak loud and clear and read with fluency.
