Principal's Message
Hello Chapman Families,
Students have been practicing gratitude and thankfulness in classes, and staff has been reaping the benefits. I have received thank you letters and hugs (and chocolate!) all of which are much appreciated. I am so thankful for all of you and your children. Thank you for sending your students to us daily and honoring us with their presence. Every day I spend with them is enriching and joyous. I hope that you all are able to have a safe and happy Thanksgiving and that you can spend it with loved ones.
Please remember that there is no school Wednesday, November 22-Friday, November 24. We will see you again on Monday!
Gift from ESCO
ESCO just purchased a year-long site license for Reflex Math, an online math program that teachers found to be highly successful with students for mastering math fluency. Thank you ESCO!
Safety Drills
Last week our main campus practiced a Lock Down drill. This is a drill to practice what to do when there is a danger within the building. Our students did a wonderful job of practicing Locks, Lights, and Out of Sight. Students that were outside practiced going to our evacuation site at Friendly House. We practice Lock Down drill twice a year.
School Attendance
Chapman is now part of PPS Attendance Initiative because we have so many chronic attendance issues. Our attendance team works directly with students and families to help make sure students are coming to school regularly. We work very hard to ensure that your child receives the best education possible. We cannot do that if your child is not in school — on time, every day, when your child is healthy. Our teachers work hard to create powerful and unique learning opportunities that can not be replicated when your child returns. Please help us to provide the outstanding education your child deserves.
