The Carmichael Bears are happy to welcome Dr. Caroline Ross as their counselor and thrilled to see her colorful and inspirational hallway. Welcome to the team Dr. Ross! In every hallway at Carmichael, our students are now seeing a βSensory Pathβ. The sensory path is a series of guided movements for kids to follow, shown by markings on the ground or walls. As our students follow the path and complete the movements, they work off excess energy and develop their gross motor skills. Way to go!
