Message from Principal Reed

CHE Parents and Caregivers,

As the first quarter of school concluded on Friday, October 9, I wanted to thank you for your support in making the beginning of the year so successful. The students have done a fantastic job of adjusting to our routines and diving into our curriculum. We are proud of the way our Bulldogs have established the foundations of community and accountability as we aspire to exemplify that we are One Team with One Dream!

We've covered a lot of ground already! Please take some time to review your student's progress in ParentVUE as report cards will be available on Friday, October 17. Reach out to your child's teacher to discuss any questions or concerns you may have at any time.

We look forward to building on this momentum in the next quarter, focusing on more complex skills toward grade-level mastery. The second quarter is also one full of fun holiday events and activities, so prepare for a memorable season ahead!

Sincerely,

Adele Reed

Trunk or Treat at CHE!
