We’re excited to announce that CHILTON has officially obtained RAMP designation for our school counseling program from the American School Counselor Association. THANK YOU TO OUR AMAZING SCHOOL COUNSELORS for all of their hard work!

Attendance is vital for every child every day as lifelong habits are established in the early school years and contribute to student success throughout their school career and beyond. The best way to keep up with your student's curriculum pacing is to ensure they are in class daily and engaging with peers and their teachers.

When students are absent, they miss participating in discovery, student discourse, and the friendships made inside and outside the classroom through play and collaborative learning. Knowledge and understanding are more than being able to complete a worksheet; it is connecting new knowledge with concepts known previously to construct new meaning and sharing explanations of what is learned. Our teachers want to celebrate students and peers attending school in person and gaining knowledge.

Please be reminded that our upcoming vacation days for the remainder of the year are the following:

• Monday, May 29, 2023 - Non-School Day/Holiday

• Tuesday, June 6, 2023 - Last Day of School (Summer Break: June 7, 2023 - August 9, 2023)

Please try and schedule appointments on non-school days and after school. If your child will be absent for an extended period, please visit our district website or contact the school's front office to set up a short-term independent study contract. We want to ensure that students can keep up with schoolwork as best as possible.

Parents are NOT PERMITTED to bring in or drop off any food or drink (including water bottles). This includes food delivery services. Lunches are offered for free this year, so any forgotten lunch can be supplemented by cafeteria offerings. We also have multiple water fountains in classrooms and around campus for students to use.

Items delivered or left in the office by parents will not be delivered to students. Students will not be notified of items in the office and it is the responsibility of the student to come to the office during lunch or passing periods to pick up items. We will only deliver emergency messages to students.

-Please follow all traffic and parking laws.

-Please do not park in front of other's driveways, garages, or designated no parking areas around the campus (including the bus loop) and surrounding neighborhood.

-Please make sure to obey instructions from the Crossing Guards (California Vehicle Code 2815).

There are many ways to report your student's absence and it is important that you report it to us as soon as possible. We wanted to highlight the different options:

1. Call - Chilton Office 916-771-1870

2. Text - 916-672-1819

Chilton's APRIL Core Value is PERSEVERANCE. At Chilton:

We see challenges as stepping-stones not roadblocks. We respond to challenging learning with persistence and enthusiasm, knowing that when we struggle through something, we end up growing. Approaching work with this mindset encourages our school community to focus on continuous improvement regardless of where we begin.

Talk with your child about what PERSEVERANCE means to your family!

Here is the 2022-23 Student-Parent Handbook. Please read this over with your student(s) to learn the policies and procedures for Chilton Middle School. Each student will receive a hard copy of the handbook with a daily planner built in for students to use to write down important dates and to stay organized with their classwork.
