Message from Administration

Dear Bateman Families & Friends,

We are officially in the final month of our school year together - a month that brings us all a heightened sense of  encouragement. Encouragement that we are moving towards a more normalized way of life; that we are able to host an in person celebration for our 8th Grade Graduates; that we have the opportunity to welcome prospective families to our school community; and that we can spend an extra moment in the warmer weather.

We are continuously encouraged by the commitment of our students, staff, and community to our wonderful school and have been given a great opportunity to come together in a very unique and special way. Please join us in supporting the Bateman experience for all students by participating in the Virtual Pajama Party Fundraiser on Tuesday, June 8th! The virtual auction is officially open now until June 15th! Check out nearly 100 items to bid on! 

We hope to see you at the virtual Pajama Party Fundraiser!

Our best,

Georgia & Kate
