Message from the Principal
Dear Bateman Families and Friends,
 

The holiday season is upon us!  We look forward to seeing everyone throughout the day on Wednesday, December 19th for our annual Winter Assemblies!  If you are feeling extra festive that day, please join our community at the Kedzie Inn at 7:30 pm for our Holiday Parents' Night Out. 10% will be donated back to our school!  Hope to see you all there!

One of our main goals at Bateman is to make sure all of our students are meeting and exceeding the Common Core State Standards. Teachers are using data gathered from NWEA/MAP testing to differentiate their lessons and to drive their instruction. Our winter assessment window for NWEA/MAP will take place during the months of December and January. Please reach out to your child's teacher to know when your child’s homeroom is scheduled for math and reading for 3rd - 8th grades. For more information about the NWEA/MAP assessment, you can visit www.nwea.org. With everyone working together, we know that all of our students can meet their growth goals in the months ahead!

Just a reminder that during the winter months, all of our students will have normal arrival and dismissal and go out for recess whenever possible. We will be checking the temperature on www.weather.com. It is imperative that our students are dressed in weather appropriate attire. If you are able, please consider donating a pair of dollar store gloves. 
 

Have a safe and joyous winter break!!

As always, thank you for staying connected and showing our community what it means to #BeBateman!

 

Be Empowered • Be Inclusive • Be Kind
Be Bateman!


All the best,
Georgia & Kate

Friday, December 14th


Applications can be modified up until the Dec. 14 deadline. You may want to add/delete a program on your application, or you may want to change the ranking of the programs to which you’ve applied. If you applied using the online application site, you can simply log into your account and make those changes. If you applied via paper application, you will need to request an Application Modification Form from the Office of Access and Enrollment. Contact them at 773-553-2060 or gocps@cps.edu.  It is extremely important that you rank the programs you are applying to in your true order of preference.

Science Event Success At Bateman!

12/9/2018

 
We want to thank our Bateman community and families for participating in all our Science Events last week. The week kicked off with our Middle School Science Investigation day and STEM fair. It was then followed up with our K-4 Science Investigation day and came to a close at our Saturday Science with Dad event. 

Thank you to all volunteers, parents, and teachers for making these events successful!  What a true testament to our amazing community - from our STEM Fair Judges to the classrooms overflowing with investigating visitors - it was quite the collaborative effort!

Congratulations to all of our scientists this week and a special shout out to our STEM Fair winners:

1st place-  Samantha 
2nd place- Stella 
3rd place- Sofia 
4th place- Joshua 

Once again, thank you to everyone!  Remember to #BeBateman and #BeAScientist!
