Principal's Message
We had a wonderful turn out last week for our beginning of the year Chesterbrook community pot luck and cookout. Ms. Macdonald and I enjoyed grilling up the hotdogs and adding to the many wonderful dishes provided by families. It was a beautiful and special night and I hope you had a chance to connect with some families in our community. Check out some of our photos below. Thank you for coming out to celebrate the start of another school year!
Tomorrow evening, Thursday, September 5th, we look forward to seeing parents at our Chesterbrook Back to School Night. We have set up the evening to accommodate families with multiple children during our evening schedule and also welcome you to join our PTA.
Begin the evening at 5:45 with our PTA for our first meeting of the school year. Classrooms will open for grade level and specialist sessions at 6:25. You will have three opportunities to visit your child's classroom and meet teachers throughout the night at 6:30, 7:00 and 7:30PM. Our preschool teachers will welcome there families from 6:30 - 7:15.
We now have a new Chesterbrook fence sign in our playground area thanks to the Chesterbrook classes of 2022 and 2023. Thank you to our former students and parent volunteers that made this happen!
Sincerely,
Stacy Kirkpatrick
