Anime Club

Carlynton's Anime Club is held in the shop every Tuesday after school. The club has fifteen members, but there
are usually comfortably small groups from 4-7 people that attend weekly.  Anime Club leaders would love to welcome new members! 

Anime Club votes on a different show to watch each meeting. Members also enjoy practicing their drawing skills during meetings, and sometimes the club even holds drawing contests.

The club leaders hope to bring some positive changes to the Anime Club during the winter and spring months of this school year. They intend to watch a greater variety of shows and genres, and have also considered creating a roster of shows to watch over the course of the year. 

If you are interested in joining Anime Club, simply show up to the shop on Tuesdays after school and introduce yourself to any of the Club members.  They are often found congregating around the video game console playing Super Smash Brothers.

Our Town: A Review

This past weekend, I had the pleasure of attending Carlynton's Fall Play “Our Town. ” The play followed events taking place in Grover’s Corners, New Hampshire,  mainly focusing on the lives of the Webb and Gibbs families.  The first act, titled “Daily Life,” opened with Stage Manager, Camryn Kwiatkoski, walking from the audience and up onto the stage to open the show. She gave insight into the daily lives of people in the town, calling characters such as Mr. Webb (Zachary Holderbaum ) and Professor Willard ( Zavier Helbig) to give accounts on the population, history, and typical events in Grover’s Corner. Characters such as Doc Gibbs (Reece Smith)  were also placed in the audience and would interject with questions for the Stage Manager and commentary on life in the town. The act allowed for the fourth wall to be  broken , giving a unique, interesting opening to the show. The act then showed a typical day in Grover’s Corners, giving viewers a basic ...

Homecoming Dance

Homecoming is something many people look forward to during their high school years. For the Sophomores, it's one of the first traditional dances they’re invited to. For Juniors, it's a celebration of growing up, a right of passage. And for Seniors, it's one of the last big dances they attend before graduation, and a chance to run for Homecoming King or Queen. Homecoming court always creates a stir among students, be it underclassmen wondering which running seniors will win titles, or hopeful voters eager to see if their favorite candidate will be crowned King or Queen.  This year, however, Homecoming elections sparked a very different conversation among students. Initially scheduled for  Friday's pep rally, the heavily anticipated  announcements of King and Queen were postponed until the Homecoming football game at the last minute. Mr. Loughren teased students on stage with an envelope holding the King and Queen winners, building suspense before announcing...

The Eco-Challenge at Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the percentage of environmental scientists and ecologists is steadily growing. Part of the reason could easily be the increasing number of botanical gardens around the world and the number of activities for children inside of them. Carlynton School District is lucky to have a garden less than 20 minutes from its community. Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens was constructed in 1893 as a gift to the city of Pittsburgh. Including this year, and five years prior, our local conservatory has hosted a middle school and high school event called the Eco-Challenge. This educational event teaches of the different works and wonders an environmental scientist can do to make real and positive change in the world. This year approximately 25 students in grades 6, 7, and 8 in the Gifted and Enrichment program attended the Eco Challenge at Phipps on September 12, 2019. Next to Phipps is a school-sized building powered entirely by solar power. In t...
