​On Saturday, Oct. 17, Bateman hosted a National Chess Day Invitational.  About 100 players from six different schools came to play five rounds of intense chess. The Bateman team was able to claim one first place prize in the 5th-8th grade novice section, led by a first place individual honor by Jocelyn Santana. Trophies were also won by Andrey Novikov, Andrew and David Tebbe. This kicks off the 2017-2018 season. Let's hope we can continue our success!

This is a friendly reminder that the last day to cancel Session 2 is Friday, October 20, 2017. If you would like to cancel please email our Finance Manager Julie Stone at [email protected] by this date.  Invoices for Session 2 will be sent out this week. Payment for Session 2 is due by Friday, October 27, 2017. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact Nissa Finch, the after-school Director for Bateman & Cleavland school.

Thank you to all the high schools, parents, and 8th grade students that helped make our high school fair a success!

​Thank you to all students, staff, parents, family and community members who participated in our annual run/walk event.  A special thank you goes out to Walgreens for being part of our wellness fair as well.  We had over 100 participants and raised over $1,100 for the Physical Education Department!!!  We could not have done it without everyone's generosity and support.  

In Health,
The Bateman Wellness Committee
