Dear Bateman Families and Friends,

The end of the year has brought many celebrations to our community! What a joy to join together to honor the accomplishments of our students, educators, and community members at large! 

We are grateful to those who planned and attended the annual Spring Fling last Friday! Whether you joined the event in person or contributed online, your support provided students with funds to update our performance space...the Bateman Auditorium. We are eager to share next steps with you all!

Speaking of the Auditorium...last week, the space was filled with wall to wall audiences on two separate occasions. In partnership with the Lyric Opera of Chicago, our 2nd Graders performed their student-created Latin American Adapted Legends and our Bateman Band, Choir, and Joffrey Ballerinas performed in the evening. Please click below to view both events - you won't want to miss them!

                                
 
                         

PreK & Kindergarten Enrollment
We are looking forward to welcoming new cohorts of Bateman families in both Preschool and Kindergarten! We have been working closely with the Office of Early Childhood Education to prepare for our 120 new and returning Preschoolers for the upcoming school year! 

We currently have just under 90 Kindergarteners enrolled for next school year. We are hoping to have all students enrolled by the end of the school year. Please reach out to Ms. Rivera with any questions and please help us spread the word!
 

Anticipated Transfers
Lastly, if your child/children are currently in K-7th grade but will not be attending Bateman next year please complete the Anticipated Transfer Form and stop by the main office to complete the transfer paperwork. Although we do not want to see any of our families leave, we do need documentation to ensure we can plan classrooms effectively and share student records with the new school. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to Ms. Rivera at [email protected].

Best regards,

Ms. Davos & Ms. Kloepper

THANK YOU to our AMAZING Bateman Community for making Spring Fling 2023 our biggest event yet!  

Spring Fling is over and the auction is closed but there’s still time to participate! Every year our amazing Bateman teachers, Bateman parents and Bateman community members volunteer to host parties. The hosts come up with a fun party theme, provide materials, food, beverages and more. Then you buy a spot for the party and have fun! Since the parties are fully donated by the host all funds raised for sold spots go directly to supporting Bateman students!

Several parties have already sold out so get your spot before it's gone!
