A Warm Welcome:
Dear Chatham Elementary School Sharks,
My name is Liam O’Brien and I’m excited to announce that I’ll be joining your school community, as your new science and technology teacher, this fall!
This upcoming school year will be my 10th year working in education. I received my education degree, from Framingham State University, in 2011. Since graduating, I helped found a school in Boston. I worked at that school teaching reading, math, special education, and I’ve spent my last 5 years teaching science- my favorite subject! I’m so excited for the opportunity to live and teach in my happiest of happy places- Cape Cod!
I love science and I love teaching! I can’t wait to share my love and joy with all of you. I believe students are our future and I believe science is our future as well. I aspire to ensure that our students know that they will change the world. I can’t wait to embark on this new journey together in September.
Thank you and I look forward to an amazing, exciting, creative, and inquisitive upcoming school year!

A Special Request from the Kindness Club:
Over the summer, please consider collecting pull tabs for the "Kindness Club." CES will resume our pull tab collection in the Fall. Lee Brigham, a member of St. Martin’s Lodge in Chatham and also of the Shriner’s, will bring them to the Shriner’s Hospital where they are used to fund medical transportation for their juvenile burn patients.

Kindergarten News:
Ms. King's News:
It is hard to believe that our year has come to an end. We had the best time learning in kindergarten. Without a doubt, the highlight was the Magic Tree House books. We went on so many adventures and learned so very much about our world and ourselves.
We are readers, writers, mathematicians, problem solvers and, good citizens.
We would like to share our memories with you: K Video.
