Principal Corner

Happy Friday, Chapelfield Families.

Today, was our first PROUD PAWS breakfast where we were able to celebrate students who were nominated as positive students in and out of the classroom during the month of August and September. Teachers nominated 2 students per classroom in kindergarten through second grade. Classmates selected two students per class in 3rd-5th grade. Family members were invited to join us in celebrating this individuals for breakfast. In October, we are talking to students about acting responsibly during morning meeting. We will recognize those individuals demonstrating that the first week of November. I am proud of our students who show PAWS daily!

Stay warm this weekend.

Sincerely,

Nikki Miller
