Thank you all for helping our school celebrate Earth Day. Together, students at our school release 1500 ladybugs. Please check us out on the Huntersville Patch Newsletter. https://patch.com/north-carolina/huntersville/chesterbrook-academy-huntersville-holds-ladybug-release. Celebrating Earth Day provided our teachers with many opportunities to relate science, math and literacy concepts to everyday life. As we move into May, we are getting our classrooms ready for a summer of additional enrichment. We can’t wait to spend summer with you and your children!
Sincerely,
Sandra Brooks, Floating Principal
Yasmine Newsome, Assistant Principal
