Message from Administration

Dear Bateman Families and Friends,

We hope you had a wonderful and well-deserved Spring Break with your families. We were thrilled to see all of our students back this morning ready for Quarter 4!

At Bateman, we believe in strong parent partnership in order to support each individual child. This week provides a unique opportunity to meet with your child’s teacher to continue a collaborative nature between home and school. All are invited to attend Report Card Pick Up on Wednesday, April 20th. It is a vital time to discuss your child’s progress throughout the school year, celebrate their accomplishments, and set goals to strongly finish the year. Educators have sent sign up sheets via email to all parents prior to Spring Break. We encourage you to sign up for a time that works best for you - either in person or virtual. 

At Report Card Pick Up, families will be able to peruse the Book Fair, participate in LSC Elections, and find missing items from the Lost & Found. Families may also browse the Pop Up Spiritwear Shop (Cash Only).

We look forward to seeing everyone this Wednesday to celebrate and lift up each of our students!


Warm regards,

Ms. Davos & Ms. Kloepper
