Principal Corner
Today, we celebrated 20 students that were nominated by the staff and their peers for our 2nd Proud Paws breakfast. "Act Responsibly" was our focus for the month of October. Our Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support (PBIS) program is something that our staff have worked hard on for over the last year and a half. We are proud of our students who demonstrate PAWS. It was nice to have families celebrate our Chapelfield Lions today. Next month, we will be looking for students that are Working Hard in and out of the classroom. We will be talking about what that looks like and sounds like during morning meeting. Please talk to your children about working hard and tell them ways you work hard everyday to take care of them!
I hope to see many of you at PTO's movie night tonight! Bring a chair or a blanket.
Sincerely,
Nikki Miller
