Friends of Carmel Unified Schools, also called FOCUS, recently had its award ceremony, where many of our teachers were awarded grants to help enhance their students’ education. A list below details the recipients and awards. Each staff member submitted a request for their grant, which ranged from physical education equipment, to musical instruments, to CTE machinery. Their hopes and goals are to expand their individual programs and provide new opportunities. Thank you FOCUS!
