Message from Administration

Dear Bateman Families and Friends,

Bateman is a truly special place.  We feel so fortunate to have the privilege of calling this school not only our work, but our second home. That's what our school is to so many of our children.  We witness it everyday through their smiles, joyful interactions, and learning experiences.

We are quickly approaching our annual Boostin' for Bateman Spring Fling!  This is the biggest opportunity to show how much you care about Bateman and celebrate each of our students in our amazing school community.  At this event, you will have the opportunity to mingle with friends and teachers, bid on exciting auction items and teacher experience parties, participate in a live auction, and so much more!  Ultimately, you have the opportunity to give back and support the instructional materials that make your child's educational experience meaningful here at school.  

Please join us in supporting our school and 
buy your tickets today!  We hope to see everyone there!

Be Empowered • Be Inclusive • Be Kind

Be Bateman!


All the best,
Georgia & Kate
