Principal's Pen
Greetings Chaffee Families,
This Thursday is our Thanksgiving Lunch, open to those who pre-ordered lunch. Please check in at the office with your identification 10-15 minutes before your child’s lunch time listed below. We are expecting a large crowd, so your patience is appreciated as we check in our guests. If you want to attend the Mindfulness Parenting Workshop prior to lunch, please see the starting times on the flyer below. I highly recommend this meeting for all parents!
Adjusted Thanksgiving Lunch Times:
PreK: 10:20-10:50am
Kindergarten: 11:20-11:50am
1st Grade: 12:00-12:30pm
2nd Grade: 10:35-11:05am

We are asking that each student donate $1 as part of our Holiday Collection. This money will be used to present our custodians, cafeteria nutrition workers, and other support staff with a gift from the school this holiday season.
Our Penguin Patch Holiday Shop will be open December 2-6, and we need volunteers (parent, guardians, grandparents, etc.) to help students shop. Please volunteer here. You will love shopping with our students!
We need students at school every day unless they have symptoms of sickness (fever, vomiting, or other contagious symptoms). You are welcome to reach out to Nurse Cat if you are ever in doubt about your child’s symptoms. Every school day is full of learning that cannot be replicated outside of school, and we don’t want our students to fall behind. Thank you for showing your child that excellent school attendance is a priority. Be sure to send an excuse note following each absence!
Soar Eagles,
April Clark
