PreK Parent Survey Results:
Thank you for participating in the PreK survey. We are currently analyzing the data and will share the findings during our individual faculty meetings this month. Additionally, each school building will host an evening community meeting soon to discuss the specific changes planned for the next school year as a result of adding PreK.
As you may know, the district is thrilled to expand educational opportunities for the 2025–2026 school year by introducing two additional PreK sections at East Elementary. We understand the importance of engaging with our community and families throughout this process, and we look forward to sharing the survey results with you and continuing these important conversations.
Thank you for your support as we work together to enhance educational opportunities for our students.
Book Study – Thank you!
Thank you to everyone who attended last week’s book study meeting. After thoughtful discussion, we have decided to study the book Unfinished Teacher. I have placed the book order, and the copies should arrive soon so we can get started.
If you’re interested in participating but were unable to attend the meeting, please reach out to my assistant, Leanne, at millimanl@chebschools.com. She has the final participant list. Please note that we have budgeted for 20 participants this year, and spots will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
The book Unfinished Teacher is co-authored by PJ Caposey, who will also be a guest speaker during our March 5th professional development afternoon. We hope this exciting opportunity will foster synergy between the book study and our upcoming PD session.
Thank you for your enthusiasm and engagement in this initiative!
