Principal’s Corner
Parents, thank you for your support as we continue throughout this school year. Despite the negative publicity we received this week, great things are happening at Chapel Hill MS. As a school family, we need your assistance with speaking with your child daily regarding making good choices and decisions, appropriate use of cellphones, and receiving items from other students. With your help, we will continue to strive for academic excellence and remain instructionally focused. Again, thank you for the support you have provided this school year. ONE TEAM, ONE GOAL, NO LIMITS and HGH EXPECTATIONS ALWAYS!
Warm Regards,
Mrs. Ayana Smith | Principal

It is the parents responsibility for supervision prior to 8:15 am. Students who are not eating breakfast will need to enter the building near the car rider area. Students who are eating breakfast will enter the building near the baseball field. All students should be at school no later than 8:45 am to ensure that they get to class on time.
