Dear Parents,
October was a fun and busy month! All classrooms created fun seasonal projects, explored and decorated pumpkins, and enjoyed our school and class Halloween parties. Our most popular annual event, Trunk or Treat was a hit! Wow…what a turn-out! The weather was great, your costumes and trunk decorations were fabulously creative, and everyone seemed to be having a great time! It was so nice to see our Chesterbrook families having fun together on this festive afternoon. Thank you so much to everyone who volunteered for this event! Your enthusiastic participation in our seasonal events is very much appreciated.The next big school event will be our “Thanksgiving Feast” Tuesday, November 22nd. We moved it up a couple days from what was on the school calendar in order to make it closer to Thanksgiving. We sure have a lot to be thankful for this year, so along with planning for their bountiful feast, the children will learn the meaning of giving through various activities.Our teachers are enthusiastic about developing lifelong learners. They genuinely care about children and have the sensitivity and knowledge to understand a child’s individual developmental needs and learning styles. They take the time to help each child discover, in his or her way, a fascinating world of learning and play. We help our teachers keep current with the latest techniques by sponsoring professional development where internal and external trainers and consultants lead our workshops. Each staff member is required to accomplish ten or more hours of training each year. Chesterbrook Academy closes its doors twice a year for professional development. We chose Veteran’s Day, 11/11 and President’s Day 2/16 as our training days because public schools, banks, and government offices are closed; therefore closing would negatively affect fewer families. We look forward to sharing learning experiences with other dedicated Chesterbrook Academy teachers in North Carolina and appreciate your support as we empower our teachers to meet the needs of your children better.
Thank you all again, for your continued support for Chesterbrook Academy!
Sincerely,
Lindsey Soban, principal
