Principal's Pen
Greetings Chaffee Families,
We had a wonderful first week at Chaffee! Thank you for your continued support of our school. Everyone is settling into his/her new classroom very nicely. The students are learning the school’s expectations and procedures and are learning that Chaffee Choices Equal Success!
Thank you for your patience as we work through so many things at the beginning of the year. Carline is moving quicker each day. Thank you to the faculty and staff who have all pitched in to help in the mornings and afternoons. We truly are off to a fantastic start!
We have a few carline tips that you can do that would help us out tremendously!
· Please clean litter out of your car’s floorboards so that it doesn’t end up on our school’s campus.
· Pull all the way up until you reach the front of the line or the car in front of you before releasing or picking up your children.
· When it is time to come through the line to pick up, cell phones should not be in use.
· If your child needs assistance buckling, please pull forward to do so, so we can load/unload more cars behind yours while you buckle. We definitely want everyone buckled up!
· At pick up time, leave your car tag up until your child is in the car. This helps the teachers know which child to look for when you pull up.
· When dropping off your child, he/she should be ready to get out of the car with backpack in hand. Please say your goodbyes before the car door opens. Please do not get out of your car in the car line.
· You should never park and leave your car in the car line.
As a reminder, all school visitors must check in through the front office using his or her driver’s license/identification, so please have it with you if you plan to visit and/or check out your child.
Thank you for a GREAT start to the school year! It has absolutely been a team effort between teachers, parents, guardians, and students! I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday. I hope to see your family at the Back to School Splash Friday evening!
Don’t forget to purchase spirit wear here. The last day to purchase is August 16.
Soar Eagles,
