Chamberlin Hill Highlights
May 2026
Thet month of May always brings about a special kind of energy. The halls feel full of excitement, reflection, and anticipation as we begin to wrap up another wonderful school year together. It is hard to believe we are nearing the end of the 2025–2026 school year, but as we look back, there is so much to celebrate.
This month will be filled with many meaningful moments as we celebrate the hard work, growth, and memories made this year. From field day and classroom activities to end-of-year traditions, this month gives us a chance to enjoy the joy of learning while also honoring all that our students have accomplished. Please be sure to review the upcoming events so your family does not miss any of the special opportunities ahead.
This year, we are especially excited to celebrate our 5th grade students with a 5th Grade Family Picnic as they complete their elementary school journey. This is such an important milestone, and we look forward to recognizing their growth, friendships, accomplishments, and the many memories they have made at Chamberlin Hill before they take their next step to middle school.
May also gives us the opportunity to recognize the incredible teachers and staff who make Chamberlin Hill such a special place. Their care, dedication, and encouragement help our students grow every day. During Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week, we celebrate the people who pour so much into our students and school community. Families are always welcome to join in by sending a note of thanks or sharing a kind word with a staff member who has made a difference.
As we move through these final weeks, thank you for your continued support, partnership, and encouragement. It has been a joy to watch our students learn, grow, and shine this year. As summer approaches, I hope your family finds time to read together, explore new interests, enjoy time outside, and continue nurturing curiosity in simple, meaningful ways.
Educationally yours,
Mrs. Zaciewski
Now that we are into the second quarter of the school year, it’s a good time to check out the balance and notification settings on your family’s PaySchools (lunch & fees!) account, and make sure your Free/Reduced Lunch application is completed within PaySchools if you haven’t completed it already.
PaySchools does not automatically alert you to a low balance or negative balance on lunch accounts unless you activate that setting.
You can easily activate notifications, and also set your account to automatically replenish once it hits a threshold of your choosing.
As always, you can avoid any convenience fees for online payments by coming to the school and paying via check or cash to the building secretary. If you have any questions regarding meal accounts or PaySchools, please contact Kadie Lindsey, klindsey@findlaycityschools.org.
