Chesterbrook ES Weekly Newsletter 11.18.25

Principal's Message

We are having an amazing full week of learning and fun at Chesterbrook. Students are immersed in their school work and showing their desire to grow. We are seeing our theme in action "Chipmunks Chip in and Climb High" as students strive to learn, share their thinking and grow each and every day. It is great to see the amazing growth our students are already making as we move into second quarter. 

We look forward to seeing parents at our Thanksgiving lunch tomorrow and/or our Turkey Trot on Monday. It's been great to have a fall filled with family connections as your children thrive on our collaboration. While you are here, PLEASE check the lost and found - your purchases want to find their way home! We will cleanout by Thanksgiving, as there is NO more room to save, so please check it out! 

Sincerely,

Stacy Kirkpatrick and Lara Macdonald
