It’s National Teacher Appreciation Week! Our Chippewa Hills teachers go above and beyond the call of duty every day to build brighter futures for our Warriors. Let’s shower them with our thanks and encouragement this week! Please reach out to your favorite teacher or a teacher who has had a positive impact in your child’s life and let them know how much you appreciate all they do!

Mrs. Laurie Stuart & Mrs. Vicki MacGregor certainly are our Lunch Heroes! Thank you for serving us delicious meals at Barryton Elementary every day!

Tomorrow is our Elementary Schools’ annual KISS Dance (Kids Invite Someone Special)! This year’s theme is “Boots & Beauties” and the dance will be at the Middle School gym from 6-8 PM. All Chippewa Hills Elementary students are invited to bring one special adult to enjoy an evening of fun. A snack and drink will be provided. If you have not turned in the RSVP to your child’s school, please turn it in ASAP so we can have an accurate count for food and drinks. There will be a photographer on site and students who bring the attached photo form will receive a free 4x6 picture from the dance! Looking forward to seeing all the Boots & Beauties at the Middle School tomorrow evening!

Barryton 4th grade students were treated to a concert from the HS Orchestra today. This was an opportunity for them to learn about the instruments in the orchestra they might be interested in playing in 5th grade. If you have a current 4th grader, be looking for a paper coming home soon!

Deputy Jason visited Barryton Elementary today and gave students a tour of his cruiser.

Just a reminder to send in your RSVPs for the K.I.S.S. dance and don't forget to bring your picture forms. See you Friday!

Thank you for your understanding and flexibility.
