What an incredible first week of school! In my five years at Chambers, this truly felt like our smoothest start yet. Our students entered the building with excitement, learned new routines, began building relationships, and quickly settled into their classrooms. Throughout the school, I saw happy children, caring adults, and classrooms filled with meaningful learning.

A smooth beginning like this is only possible through a strong partnership between school and home. Thank you for preparing your children, supporting our arrival and dismissal routines, reading school communications, and trusting us to care for them each day.

Although we are off to a wonderful start, the beginning of a school year is still a significant adjustment for children. They are learning new expectations, navigating new friendships, and building their stamina for a full school day. Your child may be more tired or emotional than usual, and that is completely normal. We will continue to support every student with patience, consistency, and care as they grow more confident in the weeks ahead.

Thank you for helping us begin the year on such a positive note. We are so glad your family is part of the Chambers community!

Gratefully serving Chambers students, staff and community,

Mrs. Gann

Our health room is in need of gently used clothing donations. We need t-shirts and pants in all sizes. Packs of new socks and underwear are also appreciated. If you have a donation, please drop it off in the office between 7:30-3:30.

Our Back to School Night is September 16th with three sessions. There are two separate in-person sessions (5:35-6:00pm and 6:05-6:30pm) to allow you to attend multiple classrooms if you have more than one student. There is also a virtual option (6:35-6:55). Rather than an open-house model, teachers have presentations for families. Please arrive just prior to the start time for each session.

We kindly ask that you not bring children if at all possible. Parents are the audience and we want to ensure that we have the space and environment to answer your questions. If you will be attending virtually, teachers will send that Google Meet link through ParentSquare.

We hope all our Chambers Champs had a wonderful first few days of school! It has been so exciting to see students, families, and staff back together and settling into a new year.

Thank you to everyone who came out to our Back-to-School Picnic and supported the local vendors who joined us—Mimi’s Ice Cream and Brew Dogs! We loved seeing our Chambers community come together and show its support for two local businesses.

You’ll have the chance to meet our board members and event chairs, hear about the activities we have planned, and learn how you can get involved. We would love to see you there!

Support your child’s school and show your school spirit by joining the PTA!

We’re offering two membership options for families this year:

Sign up by October 15th to take advantage of the T-shirt offer! We moved the deadline until after our first General Membership Meeting so families have time to learn more about the PTA and still receive the T-shirt deal.

Your membership helps fund programs, events, and resources that benefit all our students. Whether you volunteer, attend an event, or simply become a member, your support makes a difference!

As always, if you have any questions or if there is anything we can do to help you or your family directly, please email us at info@chambersprimarypta.com.
