A Note From the Principal
Munson is hiring a recess monitor! The hours are 11:45am-2:15pm. Anyone interested can apply online at https://www.chardonschools.org/Employment1.aspx.
Parents of 2nd grade students, your child will be taking the Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) during the window of February 6-10, 2023. This Ohio-required whole-grade testing screens all students for potential gifted identification in Superior Cognitive Ability and Creative Thinking Ability, and it also provides information about students' instructional strengths and needs. Following the screening, individual student results will be sent home with your child. Please contact your child’s school for exact testing dates and times. If you have questions about the assessment, contact megan.kinney@chardonschools.org.
Thank you,
Mathew Prezioso
Principal, Munson Elementary
