Message from the Principal
Dear Bateman Families and Friends,

It is hard to believe that the school year has come to a close!  As we look back and reflect on the year, we are encouraged by the growth and collaboration of each of our 970 students, 62 teachers, 30 support staff, countless parents and community members - all making ONE great Bateman Family.  We have had the opportunity to see rejuvenated life on our playground turf, shared our voices and provide feedback to shape the instruction in the upcoming years at Bateman, and celebrated the diversity of our school through our inaugural Dual Language cohort.  We have much to be proud of as a community!

Throughout the summer, please find time to relax with your children, dive in to some good books, and join us for our weekly Playground Playdates to keep our community thriving! 

We look forward to seeing everyone at the Back to School Events on August 30th and know all will be re-charged for a wonderful 2019-2020 school year!

Please be sure to follow us on Facebook and Twitter to see daily updates of all the exciting things happening at Bateman throughout the summer! 


Be Empowered • Be Inclusive • Be Kind

Be Bateman!


All the best,
Georgia & Kate
