Dear Chestnut Hill Families,
We are thrilled and incredibly proud to receive the Blue-Ribbon honor! This recognition is a tremendous accomplishment, and it truly belongs to all of us! It represents the collective efforts of the students, staff, families, and community members who make Chestnut Hill a very special place where everyone is encouraged to do their best and reach their full potential.
Thank you to all of our families for your continued support. Whether we had an opportunity to connect during conferences or communicate at another time, it was wonderful connecting with families. We appreciate the conversations, questions, and shared commitment to helping our students learn and grow.
Next week’s weather looks like it may fluctuate, with warmer temperatures in the morning and cooler weather by afternoon recess. As always, we will continue to enjoy outdoor recess whenever weather permits. Please be sure your child comes to school dressed for the changing temperatures. Jackets, sweatshirts, and extra layers are always a good idea to help everyone stay comfortable while enjoying some fresh air and outdoor play!
Upcoming Events & Reminders
- Silent Book Club – Wednesday, November 18 - 6:00–7:00 PM
Join us for our third Silent Book Club! Bring a favorite book, find a cozy spot, sit back, relax, and enjoy some time reading together. We hope to see you there! - Kindergarten Field Trips to Asbury Woods
Our KC kindergarten friends enjoyed their trip to Asbury Woods on Friday! KB and KS will have their turn on Monday as they explore nature and learn more about animal habitats. We are excited for them to enjoy this wonderful learning experience! - Early Dismissal – Wednesday, November 25
Early dismissal will begin at 1:45 PM. If your child’s usual transportation arrangements will be different that day (for example, if your child typically rides the bus but will be picked up or dismissed as a walker), please send in a note indicating the change. Thank you for helping us ensure a smooth dismissal! - Fall Break – November 26–27
There will be no school on Thursday, November 26, and Friday, November 27. We hope you enjoy a wonderful fall break filled with time to relax and make special memories with family and friends!
Thank you for your continued support of our school, I am so grateful to be part of such a special school family.

🎬 Movie Night Success!
Last Friday, families joined us for a special showing of Toy Story 5, an event wonderfully hosted by the DiLuzios. It was well attended, and we’re thrilled that everyone had such a blast! Thank you to the DiLuzios for making the night such a hit.
