Guizzetti's Weekly Update
5/5/18
Fun in May!
Just in case you missed it, check out the fun video (above) that Mr. Budziak posted of morning drop off on Friday! What a great day to end the week! Thank you parents for being patient as we took a little extra time greeting students. We are hoping to have more theme days coming up so stay tuned!
District Open House is this Monday, 5/7/18, at 12:30-2:30 PM! If you know of any families that would like to register or check out Gibraltar Schools (and Chapman!) please let them know of this event! I will be giving tours and showing off all the great things about the Chapman students, staff and community. Feel free to scan the QR codes around the building to hear what students have to say about Chapman Elementary!
June 1st is the Spring Carnival sponsored by the PTO! This is an amazing event that needs parent volunteers to make it a continued success. If you are interested in helping please contact Patricia Saavedra (Patricia.Saavedra@apria.com ) or Erin Eaton (eatone@gibdist.net) for more information.
Mark your calendars! Field Day at Chapman will be June 5th! This event is always a highlight to the end of the year. You will not want to miss it.

Parking Lot- Please make sure that you are adhering to all the parking lot safety rules. In the morning, please pull up to the second cone in the drop off area. Patience is the key to ensure the safety of our students. Chapman staff and safeties are there to help starting at 8:33 AM. In the afternoon, I know that it is difficult to find parking, but PLEASE do not create your own parking spots, do not park in the loop in front of the school and do not park in the bus loop. We are having continuous conversations about how to make the situation better... we are still looking for solutions. Please remember to be kind to and patient with staff and other parents. We are all in this together.
Chapman is in need of lunch monitors! If you are interested in being a monitor for a few hours of the day, please contact Maria D'Alfonso or Brian Bahr in food service. The number is 734-379-7620. You can also contact me at 734-379-6380 and I can help with this process.
