Chandler Cheetahs
Week of January 13 - 17
Welcome, Meredith Claybrook, student teacher!
A New Year’s Challenge for ALL!
The New Year brings a time of reflections, restarts, and resets! I bet you have a list of things you want to do this year for yourself, your family or others. What about school? Better instruction, better classroom management, or better time management? This 12-week challenge will help with all these by building a relationship with “THAT STUDENT”. We will take it one week at a time as a team...we can do this, we can fill their heart and yours too!
Click here for the 12 week challenge checklist.

Proficiency Goal = 62
You will see the number 62 posted around the school. This is our proficiency goal for the 2020 KPREP. We will continue to do much more with our goal. If students ask, simply tell them that we want at least 62% of our 3rd, 4th and 5th graders to score proficient on the KPREP test that will be administered in the spring.

The best tap into a power greater than themselves.
The best are conductors, not resistors. When the best look back on their life and accomplishments they know they didn't accomplish it alone. They know a higher and greater power guided and fueled them on their journey.
