Message from the Principal

Dear Bateman Families and Friends,

We're in the full swing of things and have many great events coming up!  One we'd love to highlight is the unveiling of the Dual Language Program at Bateman!  Please join us a few minutes prior to Open House on Wednesday, September 19th at 5:00 pm in front of Door 1 on Richmond to truly kick-off our Dual Language classrooms!  We hope you'll be able to come celebrate with us!

As the school year continues, please know that we at Bateman are always here to answer any questions or concerns you may have, listen to feedback, and welcome suggestions!  We are here to be a partner with you and your family to ensure the best possible educational experience.  If you need to speak with a staff member, we kindly ask that you make an appointment to see him or her outside of school hours or during the teacher's preparatory period as to not interrupt instructional time.  We appreciate your understanding!



Be Empowered • Be Inclusive • Be Kind
                     Be Bateman!


All the best,
Georgia & Kate
