Happy October!!
The fall colors, pumpkins, leaves, scarecrows and mums are a nice change but we need the weather to change with it! As we prepare for fall, we hope for cooler weather but it doesn’t seem to be happening anytime soon!
A huge Thank You to all of you! It is difficult to start the school year, children are transitioning, everyone is getting accustomed to their new classroom and materials and school uniforms are crisp and neat. Thank you for getting the children here early to enjoy breakfast and get their day started. Thank you for being patient in the parking lot. Thank you for communicating with us. Thank you for allowing us to care for your children. Thank you for choosing Chesterbrook!
Everyone has settled in and the school year is in full swing! We have a busy month ahead and it will not slow down anytime soon! From Scholastic Book Fair to field trips, Fire trucks to Yankee candle fundraiser, Blaze school spirit night to Pink Out day, Halloween Safety Magic show to Fall festival, Halloween Parade to Trick or Treating OH MY!
We do have some exciting news…. Our principal, Helen Parks will return on Monday, October 2nd! Please stop by to say Hello! She is returning from maternity leave after having her second child- a sweet little girl!
Enjoy the month, enjoy your little one! Time is not slowing down, rather slipping away! Take time to read to your little one, take a walk with your little one and go play at the park with your little one! Remember to snap some pictures too! Record the everyday- not just the special occasions!

Tuition: Parents, please understand the importance of paying your tuition & paying it on time! Payments are due every Friday for the coming week. Late fees will be applied at 12 noon on Monday following the due date. Unpaid tuition, more than a week past due, will result in immediate dis-enrollment. If you have any questions, please see Helen, Melissa or Andrea in the front office. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
Field Trips for the 2016-17 School Year: Please be reminded that students must wear the Chesterbrook logo navy t-shirt on field trips. All monies for field trips are to be paid at the front desk. Turn in signed permission slips to your child’s teacher.
Automatic Payment Program: Parents this is a very easy way for you to not worry about writing those checks every week and avoiding late fees. APP can be used to pay tuition only invoices or all invoices (tuition, registration & activity fees). Please see Helen, Melissa, or Andrea in the front office for details and information on getting signed up or you can print the form from the link on the school website. In addition, you can also set up online bill-pay through your bank.
Contact Information: Please be sure that all home, work, cell and pager numbers and any other contact information is up to date in your child’s file. This helps the staff at Chesterbrook have every available option to contact the parent(s) in the event of an emergency.
E-Mail Addresses: Please update your email addresses with the front office in order to receive important information about upcoming and/or emergency events from the school. We can send email notifications to more than one email address.
School Operating Hours: This is a friendly reminder that Chesterbrook’s hours of operation are 7:00 am – 6:00 pm, Monday thru Friday. Half day hours of operation are 8:30 am – 11:30 am.

Also parents, if you are running late and its close to closing time, please be sure to give the school a courtesy call.
Entry & Exit Doors: ** DO NOT USE THE BACK DOOR FOR ENTRY TO THE SCHOOL!!!** As you all know there is a code required for entry to the school. Please be sure to limit the code to family members and/or friends that are picking up your child(ren) on a regular basis. Do not give the code to your child(ren). In addition, everyone should use the front entrance for drop off and pick up. We advise strongly not to let individuals in the side entry door, as this person may or may not be a Chesterbrook parent or other family member. The side door is to only be used as an exit. This guarantees the safety of Chesterbrook Academy students and staff. Thanks in advance for your cooperation in this matter.
